I'm an engineer, business owner, machinist, and fabricator. Started racing on the dirt at Capital Speedway in 1997, in the Pro-Modified class.

Ran at various other places after it closed (Fulton & I-44 while it was dirt), and hung up my helmet in 2004 when my day job at the time (construction management and engineering) began to leave too little time to properly prepare a car every week.

A few years back, when the construction industry went to hell, I fell back to the business that put me through college, a small manufacturing company.

Back then I built paintball marker and race car parts. Now I build race car and hot rod chassis and suspension products as well as custom pistols and various other types of firearms. I also do the odd bit of general fabrication and machine work for outside customers.

Currently, I am working my way into the world of pavement chassis building, and have begun fabrication on a modified chassis of my own design.

If all goes to plan, it should see the high banks at I-44 Speedway in the 2012 season.
