A graduate from the University of Southern California and the USMC Officer Candidate School, he set the Marine Corps obstacle course record of 51 seconds. He took his love of aviation to the USAF, flying aboard the C-5M Super Galaxy as a flight test engineer for 5 years, and engineered installations of airborne experiments for the USAF Test Pilot School for 4 years. Later, he transitioned to designing sensor integrations for autonomous cars at Lyft Level 5.
