Hunter was born and raised in Alpharetta just a few miles from Wolfpen. Hunter's interest in cars began early via his dad's interest in working on notoriously unreliable British cars and motorcycles. While studying finance in college, Hunter worked part time in a service center at a motorcycle dealership and loved the idea of working in the automotive and motorsports industry. (However, he initially pursued mortgage banking as the "responsible" career choice.) In 2012, Hunter did his first track day in a BMW and was instantly hooked on the sport. He volunteered as a driving instructor for several years before he was hired by Porsche(!) as a track driving instructor. In 2020, after 5 years with Porsche, Hunter moved to the independent European car repair industry where he worked at two different shops in the Atlanta area. In his spare time, Hunter plays ice hockey and races a BMW E46. (His top 3 favorite tracks are Road Atlanta, Road America, and Laguna Seca, by the way.) He hopes to someday drive Spa and the Nurburgring.
