Beyond the Boardroom
Outside of his professional life, Ray treasures quality time with his family—whether it's gathering around a board game or enjoying classic TV shows like Home Improvement and I Love Lucy.
A hands-on creator at heart, Ray combines his engineering expertise with a passion for music as a skilled bass guitar luthier. His latest build, was a custom 6-string bass features a neck-through design crafted from walnut, mahogany, and ebony, crowned with a stunning spalted maple top.
Ray’s love for classic cars began as a restoration project with his dad, where they transformed a 1965 Ford Falcon from a modest straight-six to a 351W V-8. Today, he shares that same passion with his two children, continuing the legacy of craftsmanship and family.
