Raised in the Suburbs of Chicago (Cicero) I've customized/personalized everything around me. I went from HotWheels to bicycles to cars and motorcycles. Learned to weld from the president of the American welding society while at community college and then in 2007 I traveled to Wyoming to attend Wyotech where I graduated as the top student in my class. I learned to do everything from paint and body to chassis fabrication to custom sheet metal work to upholstery. Wyotech then sent me to Corona California to help West Coast Customs build a few 1955 Ford Trucks for Sylvester Stallones new movie The Expendables on their TV show Street Customs. When I moved back to Chicago I went to work at Ogden Top & Trim where I honed my upholstery and interior fabrication skills on everything from Rare Ferraris and other exotics to High end Hot Rods and Custom cars. In 2019 I got an invitation to fly out to Huntington Beach California to help the crew on Overhaulin' build some vehicles on 4 episodes of their 10th season. Show less «
