About Our Team

Brian Ghidinelli

Brian started Pukka Software after he sold his first company, a San Francisco Internet design and development agency, to global services firm IconMedialab in 2002. Leveraging expertise in design, usability and programming learned from building web applications for companies like Yahoo!, Macromedia and Epson, MotorsportReg.com was born. Brian is a member of the SCCA, BMW CCA, and Audi Club and instructs at HPDEs and races Spec Miata and shifter karts.

Mark Dadgar

After an inadvertent BMW CCA track school resulted in a headlong tumble down the slippery slope of motorsports, Mark brings to Pukka Software over 15 years of tech industry experience gained at landmark Silicon Valley companies such as NeXT, Apple, and Handspring. A veteran event organizer himself, Mark serves his local chapter of the BMW CCA as an official and instructor, acts as the Marketing Director for BMW CCA Club Racing, and is a member of BMW CCA, PCA, Audi Club, and SCCA. Sometimes he even has time to race, too.

Ann Maycock

Ann is the newest member of our team and will be helping customers get the most out of MSR. Her career in technology includes programming, training, technical support, and project management. Customer service has been a primary focus in all positions. Before joining Pukka Software, she specialized in assisting small businesses. Ann is a member of the SCCA and the Windy City Miata Club, has autocrossed, and assisted in registration for Club Racing events at Road America.

Jennifer Barrett

Jennifer started her accounting career at Arthur Andersen and moved to Internet search engine Ask.com. In her five years there she did everything from closing the books to overseeing SEC filings and SOX compliance. She keeps the Pukka Software finances in order and makes sure that each club receives their direct deposits accurately and on time. Jennifer is a member of the Audi Club, attends high-performance driving schools and loves Formula 1.

Why are you doing this?

Because we’re track junkies. We’re also members, event organizers, instructors and racers. We got started in this sport probably like you did – a friend introduced us to it. Now we call it family. That’s why we devote our time to helping people who share our passion.

In 2002 our original prototype reduced the pain of paper applications and checks for a single club. Today, it’s important to us that every club can realize that same success using MotorsportReg.com and our exclusive EventMaster 360° completely free of charge.
