Why McQueen Racing?

Exciting News!

I’m thrilled to announce a new collaboration with McQueen Racing!

Shared Passion For Racing

I truly love this sport, I live and breathe all things racing 24/7. The competitive nature of racing has made me adopt the phrase “pushing for perfection.” The idea of perfection is technically impossible, and there is always something to strive for, every single day. 

Steve McQueen famously said, "Racing is Life". His quest for perfection on and off the track made McQueen legendary. I connect with that same passion as I share my love for racing with Chase and Madison McQueen of McQueen Racing. They collaborate with like-minded people and create some amazing projects, films, and events that celebrate all that is cool about racing.

Honoring the Legacy of our Sport

We’re both storytellers at heart, passionate about the history of racing and the way it shapes not just where we’ve been, but where we’re headed. It’s these stories that inspire future generations to follow in our footsteps, continuing a legacy that’s built on passion, perseverance, and respect for the sport.

But racing is about more than cars and competition—it’s about the people who bring these stories to life. I’ve been incredibly fortunate to connect with so many amazing individuals in the automotive and motorsport community, starting from local events that opened doors I never imagined. With McQueen Racing, I am excited to continue building on that foundation and keep strengthening the racing community we both love.

Supporting the Next Generation

If it weren’t for the people I met over the years, I would not be where I am today. I’ll never forget meeting Michael Dolphin on the freeway, admiring each other’s cars on the way to the same car show! Little did I know at the time how important his mentorship would become. Michael is very active in the local and national Porsche community and is the co-chair of the Friends of Steve McQueen Car Show. Not long after we met, he introduced me to Chase McQueen while I was volunteering at the Friends of Steve McQueen Show—another moment that has shaped me.

McQueen Racing shares my belief in paying it forward, inspiring the next generation of automotive and motorsport enthusiasts. It’s a mission I’ve embraced as an ambassador for Drive Toward a Cure, an instructor for Porsche Club of America, and more. Together, we can extend that support, empowering future drivers in the Mazda paddock and beyond as we set our sights on Le Mans.

But that's another story to be told...
