For the fifteenth episode of my How It’s Done Podcast I sat down with my long time friend and photographer turned wheel designer Chris Sempek. Chris and I met many years ago through Honda-Tech and have stayed closely in touch ever since. He’s always had a love for cars that at first just involved working on cars and photography but then ultimately turned into designing wheels for a living. We of course spent some time talking about the present but we took a deep dive into the past and how Chris got to where he is today in both his career and personal life. From getting his degree in Mechanical Engineering from Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) to working for companies such as Fortune Auto and D2Forged Wheels and then ultimately Allied Wheel/Raceline Wheels where he would be a huge part in the launch of Kansei Wheels. We touch on everything such as how Chris got into cars, his education, moving from New York to California, Sempek Wheels, Photography, traveling and much more! Give this a good listen.
