I've been into cars since I was little, so I'm now working as an auto technician at an independent repair shop called West Valley Auto Tech in Campbell, CA. I've passed all my Automotive Service Excellence tests, including the L1 advanced engine performance and smog inspection license test, so I'm a certified Master Automotive Technician/Smog Technician. I've been working there for 5 years now, and I love what I do! :)I'm also an autocrosser, road racer, and a drifter. I started autocrossing at the "Duel at DeAnza" autocross event in May of 2001. I loved it, so since then, I've been attending autocross and road racing events on a regular basis, practicing to become a better driver. I've won quite a few first place trophies since then. I got promoted to becoming an SCCA autocross instructor! :) I didn't get into drifting until January of 2006, and I'm enjoying that as well! I won my first drift event on May 28, 2006 at Willow Springs Raceway. I'm happy I got into motorsports, because otherwise I would have not met many of my great friends I have now!
