Additional Information
After 10+ years of the family business and doing property management, to keep my sanity I had to make a change. I love cars, love tinkering & love learning so I decided to go to Lincoln Tech and learn to properly work on cars. I am an avid sim racer, having built my own computer system and cockpit specifically for it. I love to race real cars as well, but sim racing I find to be much more affordable.
