About
I embarked on my automotive journey early on. From crafting performance parts for Formula Drift and offroad trucks to leading the chassis and integration team at Baja SAE, my passion for precision engineering has been the driving force behind my career.
My fascination with cars began in Germany, where I started by changing tires and rebuilding engines at the age of 13. At 19, I hit the track with a trusty Miata, progressively refining my driving skills and deepening my understanding of vehicle dynamics.
Notable Achievements
One of my notable achievements is a restomod BMW E30, featuring a powerful turbo, a cutting-edge CAN network, and top-of-the-line motorsport electronics, all integrated with milspec wiring.
Skills
Proficient in CAD design, 3D printing, prototyping, electrical circuit design, and layout, I bring a dynamic skill set to every project.

About
Over the last 5 years, I’ve taken on multiple roles, managing customer relations, parts, and offering performance consulting and restoration advice at Sin City BMW.
My venture into motorsport began in 2015 with auto-crossing, starting with a 1988 BMW 325 E30. Progressing steadily, I acquired an E36 M3 and committed to monthly on-track weekends from 2018. Drawing from 12 years of competitive swimming at the Division I level, I’ve incorporated valuable philosophies to enhance my driving skills. After transitioning to time trial events, I quickly found success and developed a passion for data-driven vehicle and driver advancement. Mastering standalone engine management tuning further enhanced my capabilities.
Notable Achievements
In 2021, I secured a NASA competition license, marking a significant milestone. Since then, I’ve tackled tracks across the country, achieving podium results and even national-level success.
Skills
I developed mechanical skills completing all repairs, upgrades and development myself. Proficient in standalone engine management tuning after incorporating a programmable ECU into my E36.
