Rick was a 1971 graduate of Strong Vincent High School. After high school he entered the automotive field working for various local shops which lead to him opening his own shop, Bayshore Collision.

Cambridge Springs, as a correctional facility maintenance manager II, and later retiring as facility maintenance manager III with the Department of Military and Veteran’s Affairs at the Pennsylvania Soldiers' and Sailors' Home.
Rick’s true passion was anything involving a motor, spending every free moment working on a Harley or a race car. He was involved in Radical Rick Racing, ending his career as a crew chief with a two time PDRA Top Sportsman World Champion and helping anyone and everyone along the way.
