About Aerial Perceptions LLC
Meet Daren Clodio – Founder & FAA-Certified Drone Pilot
My name is Daren Clodio, and I’m the founder of Aerial Perceptions LLC, based in Edmond, Oklahoma. My passion for drone technology began back in 2012, when I started experimenting with UAVs and quickly realized the incredible potential drones could bring to industries like photography, inspections, mapping, and film production.
What began as a passion project evolved into a professional drone services company, proudly serving clients across Oklahoma City, Edmond, Norman, Tulsa, and nationwide.
