About Me

Hi my name is Pak, I'm a husband and a father to two teens. 
My passion for PDR comes from the convergence of all my interests. I started out with a Bachelor's of Engineering in Metallurgy. I worked for Toyota in production engineering and later a short stint in design for a new wheel model.  I felt best out on the floor and doing stuff with my hands, so I started working on cars directly and eventually had my own hobby auto paint and body shop. I discovered PDR there and saw the culmination of all my life experiences. Once I sold the shop, I spent a few months with a local company and soon felt I needed more. I trained at Top Gun in California and became inspired to be the best I could be. After two more years in the trenches of the PDR learning curve I decided to round out my learnings with the Stanliner PDR family in Lithuania. I believed I needed another approach to see the bigger picture of PDR. Since then, I have been vetted and awarded Gold Master Tech level in the Stanliner system and also a master Tech with ARC. I am fairly new to PDR starting in 2016 but through a continual improvement mindset I've reached a high level in a relatively short period of time. My previous related experiences have helped in many ways, Other than the technical side, I've always believed respect is earned through service and kindness.
