About:

I attended San Jose State University and graduated with honors with a BS in Industrial Design. I was awarded a Chrysler scholarship and worked summers at the University helping the faculty with projects. In my senior year I worked for IBM as an intern in the Industrial Design Department.

I got my dream job as a designer at Ford Motor Company. Car and Driver magazine in an article on becoming a car designer, said that this job was harder to get than becoming a professional basketball player. I created many designs, the most famous being the Boss Mustang. After Ford, I workied for several toy companies as VP of R & D. I then started my own consulting company, Toying Around International, and over the years I have designed toys, cars, and consumer products for many companies, I have also done illustrations for Car and Driver, Automobile magazine, Sunoco, VW and many others.

I like teaching because I want people to communicate throughout the world, and English is now essential. Also, more and more people and getting interested in learning Italian due to its cultural and artistic prestige, therefore my goal is to provide all students with a method I have been working on for ten years now and share useful tips and advice.
