It all started back when I was in high school, I remember going to car shows and cruising, The Boulevard. It was a whole other world for me seeing all the lowriders with their custom paint jobs, hydraulics and murals fascinated me. The pinstriping really caught me eye with its fine detail and artistry. Instead of doing my schoolwork, I would much rather try to remember these designs and re-create them.

Along the way, I met two pinstripers by the names of J.B. and Butch Tucker who begin to show me the ropes and became some of my greatest mentors. In addition to practice and dedication, I also attended Los Angeles Trade School to enhance my skill. I have been in the craft for well over 26 years. My head spins with color and making it come to life is what I do.

I thank God everyday for He allows me and blesses me with the opportunity to live out my dreams and talent. No school, no book, and no person could have ever taught me, taken me, or shown me what God has in my life and career. It is HE who has given me this life, these hands, and purpose.
