The SEMA Future Leaders Network (FLN) has named Martin Klepper, technical assistant/customer-service representative for motorsports at Antigravity Batteries, as the network's newest spotlight member.
Get to know Klepper in his interview with SEMA News below.
SEMA News: What is the best advice you have ever received?
Martin Klepper: "When [General Motors] told me I couldn't do it, I went out and beat them." One of my old customers told me that, and it's just a reminder of what you can achieve in the face of any odds or obstacles.
SN: What keeps you in the industry?
MK: I've wanted to be around cars since I was a teenager. I've never really looked past this industry as a career path. This is my industry.
SN: Where can you be found on a Saturday?
MK: Taking care of friends and family.
SN: How do you prepare for an important meeting?
MK: Take notes on my manager and how she wants to hear information. That way I know how to deliver information to her whether I'm prepared or not.
SN: If you could go to lunch with one industry leader, living or dead, who would it be?
MK: Bruce McLaren.
