Joseph Papa

Joseph Papa is our production technician here at Bimmer PhD. Joseph is a character and we love working with him in the shop. He was born and raised close by, in Rosemead, CA, and has a 1st degree black belt in Taekwondo. Joseph is very close with his family and he has built cars with his dad before. 

When he was a young child, he loved to work with his hands by building with Legos, and when he was a teenager, he enjoyed building electronics & computers. As an adult, Joseph loves to work on cars and has 2 of his own that he loves to work on and take to shows. He has a tricked out 2002 Honda Civic EX and a beautifully restored 1994 BMW 325ci convertible. Joseph knew that he would always prefer a profession where he is able to work with his hands, as he has too much energy to work at a desk job. He loves to learn new things, to bicycle (he even bikes into work in the cooler seasons). He enjoys good food & admits pizza is his favorite food. He is known in our shop as the food whisperer & often picked the location of our weekly lunch-ins. 

Joseph is fun & caring person and is always a breath of fresh air. Even when he’s problem solving he has a friendly smile & laugh.
