Deanna

My OG partner.

Thank you for always being there, for finding as much time as you can in the eye of the storm that is life these days. We’ve been through some shit. So. Much. Shit.

You were the excitable J-school student, head over heels about rally—and that old Mitsubishi Colt rally car—who went on to be the pro journo I always knew I could count on. You brought a true, journalistic professionalism to GBXM and I am forever grateful.

I’m glad some good news came your way. Yeah, it sucks that said good news sticks you in nightmare traffic three-plus hours a day—but I know it’s forcing you to zero in on what matters most to your own side hustle—The Auto Reporter.

You’re the real thing. A true friend. A reliable partner.

You made this possible.
