Hi all! I've officially left Ford Motor Company!
My 10 year career at Ford has been amazing and i will forever bleed blue.
I started as a Ford College Graduate in 2016 after graduating from the University of Michigan (ME & MDP minor)
My first rotation was Dearborn Truck assembling F150s on night shift. I went to CAD and learned GD&T and Catia. I worked components (oil pumps and l**e systems). Then I went to systems engineering and was on the orginal design team for 7.3l Godzilla. I had the opportunity to work Romeo Engine Plant building 6.2l PV8. I was then recruited on the orginal 7.3l dyno team - running prototype engines and proving out designs. I joined critical fasteners which was one of my favorite jobs. (Turns out there is a ton of engineering involved in fasteners). Nearly every critical fastener at FMC has my name on the print which is a legacy in itself.
I then got the magic tap on the shoulder to work in Ford Performance Parts - releasing cool projects such as the wearwolf coyote iron block, megzilla, cobra jet intake, godzilla R block, NMRA coyote stock, low profile 7.3l intake, valve cover catch cans, and Whipple supercharger kits.
After FPP, I worked as a FSA analysis engineer in FCSD. I worked my way back into Engine Engineering (now IPTSE), launching 2.0l Diesel with increased PS and robustness. I then was recruited to "High time in service", pitching various robustness actions and meeting directly with the VP, Directors and chief engineers. Speciality in 6.7l, 7.3l, 5.0l, 3.0l / 2.7l and 3.5l.
I've had numerous mentors that pushed my career and I'm forever grateful for that.
Stay tuned for further announcements. The best is yet to come!

-.005 red in open comp first round. Oof
Tom Hoffman, veteran OC racer , says that just means im trying, lol . Glass is half full.
What a great weekend with all my race family! Matthew Glasscock gave me a ride in his 7.3l drift machine. Had a great talk with the coyote stock guys and met a lot of really awesome guys interested in a godzilla swap. Holley Ford Festival Official Group put on a really great show. The stands were packed. It's definitely the busiest race of the year.
Thanks, Kevin Schweizer and Jaime Schweizer, for the hospitality / pit neighbors. You guys rock. Always enjoy bouncing ideas off Kevin.
