My journey into the world of cars began with the influence of my father, but it was the sight of a European import, a Mercedes Gwagen from the 1980s, that truly captured my heart. I started tinkering with cars as a young man, and my passion for automotive excellence only grew stronger as I pursued an education in industrial design at the renowned Pasadena Art Center.

In 2020, I founded Trail Dust Restoration. It's where I merge my design expertise with my love for off-roading and the enduring charm of vintage Mercedes vehicles. As a mechanic, I take these classics and transform them into personalized masterpieces, with each project serving as a testament to my dedication and artistry.

Trail Dust Restoration is where the road meets the canvas, where old Mercedes find new life, and where dreams of automotive perfection become a reality.
