- Description
- A fan of cars—and drawing them—since childhood, and a reader of Road & Track and Motor Trend since my teenage years. After studying at the CalArts Film School, I worked in TV commercial production in the 1990s and independent filmmaking in the 2000s and beyond. I’ve been an author at Curbside Classic since 2022 and Managing Editor since 2023, where my lifelong interests in cars, art, and visual storytelling happily come together.
