Summary

I want to work with a well organized team that has real goals of winning and is willing to put forth the effort to accomplish their goals. I know the level of work I'm capable of, and although I still can learn much more, I have much to offer. I have always been naturally gifted with a mechanical ability that has served me well in my private life and in my amateur racing. I now want to further my learning and increase my ability, and even more important, use the ability I currently have to help a team win races. I am, and will always be, a true racer at heart.
