Biography
Car design in the 21st century means a lot more than just styling. Our generation more than ever needs to be environmentally responsible. We are charged with a mission to create cleaner vehicles and to provide solutions that help reduce the toll on the environment while moving people with ease and style.
Combining my love for art mechanics and racing, automotive design has become the passion of my life. My mission is to create green, sustainable cars that are smart, fun to drive and beautiful to look at.
