ABOUT ME

I am an outgoing & competitive person. Throughout my time in the Formula SAE competition I have led the OSU team from finishing in the 20’s, to winning every competition the car finished in 2010 and ‘11. I have been involved in every aspect of the project to make that transition from suspension to sponsorship, testing to teaching, machining to management and everything in between.
