ABOUT ME

As an academically trained physicist with a passion for high-performance driving, I apply my analytical skills to master the art of racing. My motorsports journey began in the early 2000s with time attacks, and my deep-seated love for cars quickly evolved into a profound pursuit. I've since excelled in both team endurance karting and wheel-to-wheel racing, clinching a victory in my inaugural endurance karting race and securing a podium finish in my first wheel-to-wheel event.

As a coach, I work with sim racers—many of which are real-life racers—and previously served as the Lead Instructor for PCA SimRacing. I’m a certified MSF Level 2 instructor and a recognized National Porsche Club of America Instructor. I also instruct with the HANSON International Advanced Driving School and other respected organizations, sharing my knowledge and passion for performance driving.

How I’m Different

My background in physics has really helped me understand and educate the 'how' of lowering lap times. I focus on fundamentals and process.

There is an effective feedback loop to improve pace: identify the driving mistake, understand what is wrong, determine and execute the corrective adjustment, then repeat. My coaching, is primarily teaching you the skills and techniques to each part of that feedback loop, so that eventually, you can coach yourself and reprogram your driving habits through intentional and deliberate driving exercises
