About CarShowz.com
Founded in 2009, CarShowz.com initially launched with a .us domain before transitioning to a .com. The cumbersome process of sifting through forum posts and piles of event flyers distributed at shows was growing tedious. CarShowz.com was designed to serve as a comprehensive resource for car enthusiasts to effortlessly locate events and promote their local gatherings at no cost. As time passed, the website expanded its offerings to include automotive photography, becoming a cornerstone feature of the site.
A hobby gone mad, I created CarShowz in 2009 with the premise of helping local shows and automotive businesses. I enjoy the technical aspect of operating the CarShowz website, utilizing my skills and experience from my day job. Capturing the story of events in its entirety behind the lens of my camera. Photography is another notch in my belt that has helped promote and market the automotive industry. I am grateful for the people who I have met and networked throughout the scene. I am hoping to continue that journey through to life's end.
