FEATURED CONTRIBUTORS MECUM AUCTIONS ALEX YOVANOVICH With Mecum since 2015, Alex’s background includes the role of vice president of PR for advertising agency Caldwell VanRiper, promoting Bryant Heating and Cooling’s IndyCar Series efforts with Andretti Autosport, serving as editor of the Indianapolis 500 Yearbook, and working with two Indiana governors on economic development initiatives. Alex and his wife, Andrea, have one son and share an enthusiasm for travel and open-wheel racing. SCOTT MEAD With a little help from his grandfather, Mecum’s senior photographer, Scott, started driving at the age of 3 and was racing go-karts by the time he turned 8. He received his first camera (a Kodak Instamatic) around the same time and started photographing car events, races, rallies and concours. Before coming to Mecum, he was a writer and photographer for Edmunds.com, Motor Trend and spent 15 years in Hawaii photographing the island’s splendor. Scott’s wife swears he gargles with 100-octane race gas and bleeds 20/50 motor oil, and when he’s not on the road, you can find him in his garage, wrenching on their DeTomaso Pantera or Porsche 914. HAILEY SCHULTE Hailey is a graduate of the University of Wisconsin- Whitewater with a B.A. in Creative Writing. When she isn’t putting her grammatical skills to use for Mecum Auctions as a copy editor and contributing writer, she can be found unleashing her creativity on projects of her own. An avid lover of countless creative genres, Hailey runs a poetry blog and writes short fiction pieces, and a selection of her work was recently published in a Best Emerging Poets series. Aside from writing, Hailey loves animals and is a proud cat mom to her two fur-babies, Ferret and Mallory.
