Bob began programming in the 1980’s when he was in 2nd grade, using his Atari 800XL computer and BASIC programming language. He was self-taught and continued programming until he began to grow bored with it by the time he could drive at age 15, but found there was a new way to apply his love for computers; automobiles.

He began tuning on his (future) father in law’s 1987 Buick Grand National. There was a very limited selection of “good” tuning software at the time, and most was done in HEX. He learned HEX and he tuned without a graphical interface. He then created a tuning product called the Turbo Six Tuner, a Buick GN only – graphical interface editor for tuning the cars during his Sophomore year of college.

Along with that came his first book on tuning for the Buick GN; and he realized his real calling was to educate people on the software, to be a bridge between ECM tuning and engine operations. This would later become his full-time occupation with the founding of his company, The Tuning School. He began creating learning courses for HP Tuners first, and then later for SCT. Over the course of almost 20 years programming and tuning, he has written numerous books and technical articles for industry-standard magazines. He also teaches automotive technology instructor C.E. classes at major Colleges and Tech Schools.

Bob currently serves as the President of The Tuning School, where his primary roles are R&D, product development, and teaching. He has taught students all over the USA as well as the Middle East and Europe.

Bob is an autocross and road-racing enthusiast and occasionally drag races as well.
