My Story

Being born into a family of Portuguese immigrants has introduced me to a unique culture and way of life. The Portuguese perspective and moral code takes much of the credit of influencing me to follow a strong work ethic. The conclusive belief that ‘nothing comes to those who do not work hard’ has been a constant reminder in the way I conceive and construct.

I love the tactility and experience of vintage cars and the storylines and the camaraderie of soccer. Whether its graphics, wood working, leather working, or whatever else I can get my hands on, these hobbies of mine keep me creative and focused, giving me varying perspectives when I get back to my work.
