I've always been a thinker and tinkerer. As a child, I loved my chemistry set and taking apart anything I could get my hands on. Every trash day my best friend, Josh and I would comb the neighborhood looking for anything we could dissect; stereos, vacuum cleaners, fans, televisions - anything with electronic guts! Although I stopped digging through the trash for junk to take apart, my desire for knowing how things work inside and out has not changed. I strive to achieve a guru-like status in fields that require a high level of technical proficiency and attention to detail. One of the most rewarding feelings is simplifying complex concepts so that people without familiarity can enjoy the benefits. I enjoy spending most of my leisure time with my lovely wife, Lyndee and playing with our Australian Sheppard, Biggie. Some of our favorite activities include soaking up the sun at the beach and hiking through the California wilderness. My favorite hobby/money-pit is working on my cars that include a Chevy S-10 that I have modified to lay on the ground with air suspension and an Infiniti G35 Coupe that I'm constantly striving to make a little quicker.
