When I’m not creating solutions in the tech world, you can find me on the racetrack or under the hood of a car. Friday night street legal shootouts are my drug of choice and this year ,... I’m gonna lay some real numbers down. In what little spare time I have I hang out with the family and builds hotrod cars. Well, I get my friends to teach me how. Cars have been a passion of mine since I was a boy and I often find myself torn between a community of hot-rodder's that don't have anything to do with the tech world, and having all the teckis asking me car questions.

Since I was a kid I loved the automobile. The whole freedom it offers. build’em up and fire them down the track, just like my old HotWheels© sets!. From fast cars to animated movies I’m really just a big kid at heart. it’s why I love tech so much, the constant change and invitation is always fresh. It keeps my mind nimble and teaches people to always be growing :)

Soon as cars manufactures starting using computing power to control the engine I was hooked. It was a marriage of my two favorite things. Now I can use the precision of a microprocessor to squeeze every last drop of power from this motor !.. The only real question left is, how fast can I go ?
