- Bio
I was born into cars, it really wasn't a choice. My father worked for many different manufacturers including BMW, Peugeot and DeLorean just to name a few. He also loved to work on cars and loved to own too many at one time, SEE ABOVE LIST, hehe. I have been trained by my father from age 5 on all types of cars. From basically all Domestics, Foreign and Exotics. Hondas to Rolls-Royce. In my youth I was put to work on many hotrods that we owned or friends owned. This is where I realized that I liked cars and it was now by choice to continue on. Around age 9 I was left to work on many sections of the cars by myself and by age 14 could work on just about anything there was on a car mechanically or electrically. Age 13 started my spree in purchasing cars. Till today I have owned nearly 100 used cars in all forms following my fathers footsteps. Many being Subarus, as since I purchased my first in 2001, I have owned 26. My passion for working on Subaru brand cars lies in their rally heritage. While my father was working for Peugeot North America I was being exposed to rally at a young age and found myself wanting to be a rally driver in the future. My 2001 2.5RS got me back into rallying and into heavily modifying Subarus. Started my first swap in early 2003 using a TEC3 for engine management and can't seem to stop ever since.

I have had my hands in on many different swaps throughout the years including all Subaru models and almost every drivetrain combination available in the US, Japan, and Europe bring me up to nearly 85 swaps in total. My racing career started with my RS in 2001 with auto-x and rally-x. I have worked many rallies for different teams on the east coast and have either worked for or attended just about every rally on the east coast since then. I attempted to run Rally NY in fall of 2006, unfortunately my cage did not pass tech and have since sold my RS. We are currently building a 2002 WRX sedan for PGT duty for Rally-America and NASA competition. For the past 2 years I have been working for BMW North America as a Warranty Specialist on a special project. I work closely and specifically with NA's drivetrain engineers to rectify any current warranty covered drivetrain issues.
