Background

I’m a product-minded builder focused on the intersection of automotive engineering and software. My work centers on creating tools that make complex engine swap projects more accessible — combining AI-assisted planning, 3D scanning, and real-time collaboration into platforms that serve both hobbyists and professional builders.

What’s Next

I’m building SwapSpec — a software platform to assist in engine fitment for engine swaps with AI-assisted build planning. My long-term goal is to open a specialized resto-mod shop focused on engine swaps and below-chassis upgrades, backed by the software tools I’m building today.
