About Brian
One of my earliest and fondest memories is attending a Formula One race at Hockenheim, Germany with my dad. The moment I saw those cars, I was hooked. Immediately, I started building things to race. Whether it was RC cars or go-karts, it had to go fast.
At the age of 15, I bought my first car and started customizing it. By the time I could drive, I already had it equipped with custom suspension, custom wheels, a custom stereo system and some performance parts. This led me to working at a local performance shop.
After college, I opened my own shop. Millennium Autosports specialized in custom forced induction setups, engine building, dyno tuning, roll cage fabrication and anything else related to performance. Running Millennium gave me the opportunity to host a TV show sponsored by Royal Purple, as well as appear in multiple magazines and race in the NOPI and IDRC series. At one time, Millennium was the largest performance shop on the East Coast.
I decided to sell Millennium in 2008 and got a great job at Firestone where I honed my diagnostic skills. I quickly became ASE certified in multiple categories and was promoted to store manager. After five years, I left Firestone to become an instructor at Tidewater Tech, teaching engine performance, electrical, and transmissions. I was quickly promoted to the program coordinator and stayed there for three years.
During my free time, I have multiple hobbies, ranging from music production, where I have had several top 10 records, spinnin’ the 1’s and 2’s, building home theater/automation systems and being part of the vaunted RAIDER NATION!
Here at ALLDATA, I plan to use my unique experience in this industry to help our Tech-Assist customers. My history of installing and tuning engine management systems has given me a different perspective on diagnostics and I really look forward to helping you soon.
