    Indiana Born.  West Michigan Raised.

    I have been immersed in the West Michigan community and culture for over 40 years of my life.  No matter where I have wandered, whether pursuing a higher education, or chasing my dreams in professional sports, I have always managed to find my way home, in the Greater Grand Rapids area.  What an amazing place to settle down, build a career, and raise a family!

    I was born in Jeffersonville, IN and moved to Grand Rapids at the ripe age of 6 months old.  I was raised in the Grand Rapids Public School system, where my father spent over 30 years as an Educator and Head Football Coach at Ottawa Hills High School, where I am a proud graduate as well.  I ventured off to Fort Wayne, IN, where I earned my Bachelor Degree in Business Management, with a concentration in Public Speaking from the University of St. Francis.  I was a three-time All American Wide Receiver for the Cougars, while also serving as President of the Pi Kappa Delta Honorary Forensics Fraternity, competing part time in the football off season at public speaking events.  Upon graduation, I played professional football for 6 years in various indoor leagues, including the National Indoor Football League, United Indoor Football League, and in the Arena Football League, playing for both the Grand Rapids Rampage and the Detroit Fury.

    I have been working in the Automotive Industry since 2005, with Saturn, Hyundai, Kia, and now BMW.  I was blessed with the opportunity to come to Sharpe BMW in 2015, serving as the BMW Sales Manager.   I am very passionate about my job and love to hear feedback from all of our wonderful clients! Stop in and see me sometime!

    In my free time, I love spending time with my beautiful Family, my wife Brittany, my son Jordan, my bonus son Shane, and my baby daughter Charlie.  I love to play golf and basketball when my time permits, and I am a passionate University of Michigan fan, as my Father, Jerry played football for the legendary Bo Schembechler. Go Blue!

    Hi my name is Ross. I was born in San Diego, California. I have lived all over the United States but consider Grand Rapids, Michigan to be home. I graduated from Grandville High School.

    My father worked at SHARPE in the 80’s, and while that didn’t bring me to work at SHARPE, it’s absolutely something of a “small world” thing.

    I am looking forward to working with you!

    I enjoy making flambe’ desserts and my favorite food dish is Ceasar salad w/ blackened salmon.  In the 80’s, I fed my skiing habit in Aspen and Vail by doing TV commercials.  The most perfect thing in my life are my Grand daughters.
    The best thing about working at Sharpe is that I’m part of a special occasion in my customers lives.

    I have been employed at Sharpe since August of 2022. I was born in Jenison, Michigan. I graduated from Jenison High School in 2014, where I then went on to Grand Valley State University to run hurdles on their Track and Field Team. After college I was in the bar/restaurant industry for 8 years. Spring of 2022 I started Coaching Track and Field Sprints at East Kentwood High School. While coaching, I was volunteering for the Special Olympics where I was asked if I have ever given thought about working in the automotive industry. Four weeks later, here I am at Sharpe as their Marketing Specialist and Event Coordinator!

    In my free time I love to play all sports (Gus Mackers are my favorite), take my dog Wrigley (Yes, I am a Cubbies fan) to the beach and coach basketball and track.

    I take great pride in what I do, and look forward to potentially working on things with you!

    My name is Jordan Dutcher, I’m the Vehicle Inventory Accounting Coordinator here at SHARPE and have been with the company since 2016. I have a very strong passion for technology and cryptocurrency. I’m an avid believer in Bitcoin and Etherium and also very into smaller projects like Cardana and Vechain. In my spare time I work tirelessly on my small woodworking business where I create yard games and rustic furniture! I enjoy traveling when I am given the opportunity, Cancun has been my all time favorite so far, with plans for Jamaica, and eventually Europe sometime down the road. I also recently just purchased my first home with my girlfriend of 5+ years, Sierra, in Grand Rapids where I’ve resided my entire 27 years.

    During my time at SHARPE I’ve developed many skill like Appraising, Detailing, Paint Correction, Automotive Photography and received a certification in GT Quartz Ceramic Applications. I take great pride in what I do and I am always looking for ways to improve — not only what I do, but also ways to improve the experiences of our clients and fellow coworkers!
