Photography and Racing

I have a passion to professional photography. Mostly for portraits and landscapes. I always bring my professional equipment wherever I go. I also like to align the landscape together with the portrait photography, where I can make beautiful compositions from people and landscape.


Racing is also a passion. I've grown up in an automotive world, racing through go-karts, formula ford and tourism racing vehicles. I've tried to keep the professional racing career, but did not succeed, then I turn to the automotive engineering, where I could align the racing skills to the engineering skills in my professional career.

Additional Information

I think that my professional experiences with simulation and experimental make me an unique engineer that can understand both sides and provide more comprehension from data used for vehicle demand energy topics. The racing background also helps me have sensitive feeling and good skill for driving and translating vehicle impressions to improve them.
