Interests in motor vehicles began at age 9 with the attendance of my 1st Indianapolis 500 won by the late Jimmy Clark.

Progressed to Kart racing in my early teens while I began flying airplanes with my father who is an ex WW2 P-51 Mustang pilot. I continue to attend the Indy 500 yearly and 2002 was my 34th event with 23 consecutive races. Began following Formula One™ in 1979 with the South African Jody Scheckter. I am also the graduate of two professional racing schools. Skip Barber and Bertil Roos. Road racing and ovals respectively.

Also an avid CART fan having attended over 200 events to date. Began attending F1 in 1990 at the US GP in Phoenix and also the following and final year of our GP having seen the late Ayrton Senna win both events. After we lost our GP I attended the Canadian GP seeing Gerhard Berger, Alain Prost and Michael Schumacher take wins.

With the return of our GP in 2000 I again returned to the Indianapolis Motor Speedway seeing Michael Schumacher retake the points lead on his way to his 3rd World Drivers’ Championship followed by his fine teammate Rubens Barrichello placing 2nd. I attended the 2001 event and saw an interesting win by the great Mika Hakkinen taking what was his final win in F1.

Served as the president of one of Michael Schumacher’s fan clubs for two years. My profession is electronics and computer networking. Other hobbies of mine include my high performance cars, racing simulations, electronic music composition, and traveling to racing events.

I am a member of the following organizations: Ferrari owner’s club, Ferrari club of America, C.A.R.T winner’s circle, World War 2 memorial, Planetary Society and the N.R.A.
