I am a mechanic, machinist, and engine and gearbox builder based in Escondido, California, with a lifelong passion for automotive performance, precision craftsmanship, and hands-on problem-solving. I was born and raised in San Diego, where I learned the value of hard work at an early age. My father was a firefighter, paramedic, and general contractor who introduced me to tools, construction, and mechanical work while I was still a kid. By the age of eight, I had tools in my hands, and by ten, I was using power tools under supervision.

Growing up, I spent countless hours working on bicycles, dirt bikes, and family vehicles, which naturally led me toward a career in automotive repair and machining. During my college years, I began an apprenticeship at a Porsche specialist shop, where I developed the foundation for my professional career. Over the years, I have specialized in Porsche, Ferrari, and Lamborghini service, restoration, engine building, gearbox rebuilding, diagnostics, and high-performance street and race car applications.

I have also completed factory training with Porsche, Lamborghini, and Bentley. My approach has always been centered on precision, consistency, and continuous learning. Outside of work, I enjoy mountain biking, riding motorcycles, backpacking, and camping. Whether in the shop or outdoors, I enjoy challenges that require focus, skill, and attention to detail.
