Former Model Maker at Stern Pinball. I specialized in metal fabrication to create all the prototype components for the mechanical engineering team (ramps, accessories, ball guides, etc) that went into future games.

Originally from MA and a retired competitive/NEPL member (at one time ranked 896). My other passions include film, PC Video Games and Boston based sport teams.
