My experience started with my dad and me restoring antique Oldsmobiles when I was 8+. When I was 13 I restored what would eventually be my first car, a 1965 Oldsmobile 442. My senior year of high school I restored a 1966 Chevy II Nova SS custom street rod as a graduation present.

I went on to get my AAS in Automotive Technology then join the army as a wheeled vehicle mechanic and turned into a Stryker mechanic for 4 years. When I got out I started my engineering degree and was a supervisor at a Cummins diesel shop. Now I'm a Quality Engineer for an aftermarket automotive parts distributor.

Just the other day I was presented with two opportunities to be and engine builder for the Patron race team or to manage an automotive detailing distributing warehouse in West Palm, FL. Due to my injuries in the military, I can no longer be a technician but I'm ok with that because it ruined my passion for building and restoring my own cars.
