INSPIRATIONAL QUOTE
Do the work. Put in your time and learn as much as you can, so you will be ready when opportunities present themselves.
CAREER & LIFE CHALLENGES
Being named Editor in Chief of Bimmer Magazine in 1999, I learned to check sources very carefully. I had to fact check and be very careful about what we put into print. Bimmer readers loved BMW’s and they would scrutinize every aspect of the cars they loved.
