I was born and raised on a mixed farming operation in Michigan and immigrated to Canada in 1981 to work in the purebred cattle industry. After a 25 plus year career in Real Estate in Calgary, my wife Becky and I moved to the Comox Valley in 2015. We both enjoy everything outdoors with my passions being fly fishing, hunting and camping. I am a believer in giving back and I am a member and volunteer for Courtenay District Fish and Game Protective Association, Comox Valley Fly Fishers and Anderton Therapeutic Gardens Society. I look forward to making your next vehicle purchase or lease a pleasant and fun experience and welcoming you to the Brian McLean Family.

Born and raised in Lethbridge, Alberta, my wife Sarah, and I moved to the Comox Valley in 2018 to be closer to her family and begin a new chapter in our own lives. After 25 years in the trades, it was time for me to make a change that would enable me to have more interaction with customers and the public in general. The move to Brian McLean GM has been a smooth transition and I am excited to meet current and new customers! In our free time Sarah and I enjoy camping, fishing, and golf. One attraction to the Comox Valley was the ability to enjoy these pastimes almost year round. We also volunteer our time with the Comox Curling Club, and I also volunteer my time at the Comox Golf Club. We have met so many great people through our volunteer work, and I hope to expand on those relationships through Brian McLean GM. I look forward to helping you with your next vehicle purchase or lease and making your experience at Brian McLean GM and enjoyable and memorable one!

I have lived in the Valley for 29 years and have been married for 28 years with a 26 year old daughter. A big part of growing up was going to car shows and swap meets with my Dad so working in the car business just feels like a part of my life. So excited to be a part of the team at Brian McLean Chevrolet Buick GMC. When I’m not working, I love fishing and camping with my hubby!

I have more years in the automotive industry than I care to admit. After growing up in Kitimat and working in my families sporting goods store there, I moved to Terrace where I began my automotive career washing cars in 1997. In the fall of 1997 I met my wife Stephanie, and after living up north for another few years, Stephanie and I decided to move to the Lower Mainland in the summer of 2000. While Stephanie studying at UBC, I worked during the day at an automotive dealership and began working with local comedy companies throughout the city. In the winter of 2002 I decided to give comedy a full time try and moved to Los Angeles. I returned to Vancouver in the spring of 2003 and began what I thought would be a brief relationship with General Motors. After spending 12 years in the city with GM, and finding out that we were expecting our second child, Stephanie and I decided we needed a change in lifestyle and began exploring opportunities on the Island. When we discovered the Comox Valley we knew this is where we wanted to be, we had longed for the idea to get back to a tight knit community, and raise our children in a place that reminded us of where we grew up. It was one of the best decisions we have ever made. Myself and my family are avid mountain bikers, and love all the recreational activities that the island has to offer. One last interesting fact, Our children (Riley and Tucker) share the same birthday, September 28th, although they are born 5 years apart.
