About Me:

From a very young age, growing up around my father's Corvette shop where he rebuilt trailing arms and did mechanical work, specifically on Corvette's between the years of 1963 and 1996, I gained a love of all things that go fast. I went on to get my own taste of speed by participating in motorcycle hare scrambles all across the great state of Indiana with my parents supporting my every desire to go fast.  They also supported my desire to pursue my passion through attending Purdue University Indianapolis (previously Indiana University Purdue University Indianapolis, IUPUI) to obtain my Bachelor's of Science in Motorsports Engineering (BSME).  I am now looking for a position within the auto/race industry that will help foster my love of automobiles, engines, and all things that go fast.  Below you will see my professional experiences that have allowed me to learn how to be a reliable, accountable, and hard-working young man ready to face the challenges of the industry and apply my skills and knowledge.
