Puget Sound Chapter For nearly 20 years BMW has been a massive part of my life. I grew up around the brand, meeting fellow enthusiasts, and sharing in stories of repair, frustration, and the joy that hopefully followed. I joined the BMWCCA in 2003 (before I had a driver’s license in fact!). From that point, most of my friendships came from like-minded individuals who also fell in love with the marque, owned a BMW, but more importantly, cared about the BMW community. Since 2005 I’ve been promoting this community aspect of BMW ownership, mostly around the E30 chassis through R3VLimited.com and the E30Picnic. I’m beyond grateful for the folks I’ve met along the way and feel it’s important to give back for not only the joy that BMW has brought to me, but to expand on my desire to foster this sense of community that has been so integral to my life. Introducing people to this experience will always be a passion of mine. I am currently VP of the E30 Chapter and have been participating in club events since I became a member. For me the BMW CCA is immensely powerful, and I would love the opportunity to work with Pacific chapters on how we can continue to promote the vision that the CCA has always stood for, bring new members in, and show them the fun that can be had other than simply owning a BMW. I feel between car shows, social events, and driving events we can really bring people together while mutually enjoying the cars that brought us here in the first place. I really appreciate the opportunity to support what BMW and the BMW CCA are all about: Driving Joy, the Ultimate Driving Machine, and the friendships we gather along the way. Thank you.
