In making the announcement, Dan Risley, ASA’s president and executive director, said, “Steve’s experience and knowledge in the automotive repair industry will ensure that repairers in ASA-MA/RI are well represented. He has a history of leading repairers in Massachusetts, and we are excited to have someone with his credentials as part of the ASA family.

Stephen Regan said about the expansion, “The establishment of ASA- Massachusetts/Rhode Island, is an important step in ASA’s commitment to ensure service and repair professionals throughout the United States have the representation and support they need to be competitive in today’s constantly changing repair industry. I am honored that ASA chose me to lead this effort, and I look forward to putting my many years of experience in association management and advocacy to work for repairers in Massachusetts and Rhode Island.”
