In addition to more than 10 years of freelance writing, he has cut his teeth in a variety of posts within the collector car industry, including positions at a leading auction company, a highline brokerage, and an automotive museum. Particularly versed in prewar coachbuilt cars, postwar European sports cars and modern exotics, he conducts test drives, covers new model unveilings and classic car concours d’elegance, and interviews recognized figures in the automotive industry and collector car niche.
