I joined PCA and Oregon PCA back in August 2014. I had just bought a new Black Boxster S. I was still working at Intel at the time, so I did not do very much with the club. My first event was the Holiday party in December. There I was greeted by Anh Le, who was the Membership director at the time. My husband, Eric, and I had a great time and felt very welcome. From then on, I watched the weekly emails for more events we could do. In 2016, I found an ad that continued for weeks about needing a webmaster. I finally answered the ad and became the club webmaster. Boy, did I have a lot to learn! In 2017, I took on the role of Communications Director. I moved to the Vice President role in 2020 and continued as Communications Director. In 2022 – 2023 I was the President of our club. In 2024 I will continue on the board in the Past President role.

My passion for sports cars began when I spent a high school summer working as a nanny for a family that had a 1967 Mercury Cougar. It was dark maroon with black leather seats. I was allowed to drive it home when I finished work. I loved driving that car! My first Porsche was a bronze-colored 1986 944. After that car, I did not get another Porsche until the 2014 Black Boxster S. Since then, we have had several Porsches, but as of today, we have a 2021 Boxster GTS 4.0 in GT Silver (Stella) and a 2021 Cayenne GTS in Quartzite Gray (Annie). Eric and I enjoy the camaraderie of the people as well as the beautiful cars. We enjoy doing the drives. We also enjoy the dinner gatherings and car corrals. I have been doing Autocross for six years. You can always reach me at [email protected].
