10+ years on the shop floor in Detroit. I've seen transmissions destroyed by mismatched tires, trucks stranded with overloaded sidewalls, and track day rookies shredding rubber they didn't know was wrong. I built Tire Size Hub so you don't have to learn the hard way.
Michigan State University. Focus on vehicle dynamics and materials science. Graduated with honors.
Started as a tire technician at a commercial truck shop in Sterling Heights, Michigan. Mounted and balanced 50+ tires per day. Learned that most customers had no idea what the numbers on their sidewall meant.
Promoted to foreman at a multi-brand tire center in Detroit. Managed a team of 6 technicians. Started keeping a notebook of every expensive mistake caused by wrong tire specs.
Left the shop to work as an independent tire and wheel fitment consultant. Specialized in lifted trucks, off-road builds, and EV conversions. Started writing guides for local forums.
Launched Tire Size Hub to put everything in one place: calculators, stories, and guides. Built in Detroit. For drivers everywhere.
