The first time I experienced 100 MPH was in 1968 while a young passenger in a 1963 356C where I learned three things: Porsche’s were fast, exciting, and had a spare generator belt. 28 years later, I purchased (and still own and drive) a 79 SC Targa. For the next 23 years, I drove it whenever possible and almost always along scenic roadways throughout Northern California and then throughout Oregon after returning to my roots back in 2008.

I finally joined the PCA and Oregon Region after speaking with a club member at a Portland Auto Show but it took me a few more years to actually join the club. Fast forward a few years and my daily driver is a Panamera GTS while on warm days and dry roads, I enjoy a GT4.

I attended a tour leader class and started to meet fellow enthusiasts. I have
created and led several midweek drives. My wife Sue and I have enjoyed the NW Passage and are looking forward to October’s next version.

When I am not enjoying the relaxing wonders of driving engineering marvels, I lead a boutique CPA firm serving global customers from my offices in Portland, Silicon Valley, and Los Angeles along with a dispersed team living in every time zone including our first international employee living in Toronto, Canada.

I am pleased to be the club’s Treasurer and I look forward to serving alongside our experienced, dedicated, and fun
