Lets goooooooo! Where do I sign!?

Growing up being blessed to have love and support from friends and strangers gave me the HOPE and pushbi needed to get where I am today. So being apart of this organization and movement was a no brainer. Sometimes we just need someone to say "I have your back, lets move forward together!”

Being in the automotive sales industry for over 20 years has allowed me to meet amazing people and of course help them navigate thier vehicle purchasing options and be their "go to guy" with any question they may have... no matter how much time goes by.

I'm a father of four and blessed to have married my best friend Kimberly to share this amazing life with. My days away from the office are usually offroading, laying my a lake or finding new trails to hike and explore. We moved here 2 years ago to be closer to my in-laws, and I can honestly say it was the best decision of my life.

I've been very lucky to have a handful of people i could never repay for all the love and guidance they have helped me navigate through to becoming the Man, father and husband i am today. The Spicuzza family, Keller Family, and my mentor Kenny Chapman, who has passed, are just a few I have to thank for helping me find Hope! They showed me what life was truly about. How to appreciate the small things and how to become the man I was destined to be.

Hope looks like people showing up for one another, even in small ways. It's neighbors helping neighbors, volunteers giving their time, teachers encouraging students, and strangers offering kindness without expecting anything in return. In my daily life, hope is choosing to believe that small, consistent acts of compassion can create meaningful change in a community.

My favorite thing about being part of the Bend/Central Oregon community is how willing people are to support one another. Whether it's volunteering, supporting local businesses, or coming together for community events, there's a genuine sense that people care about making this a great place for everyone.
