Moreland / Thompson

Albany, NY

The Team

Colleen Moreland & Sean Thompson

Our team name is a play on the motorsport term “riding the kerb” with a nod to our disparate but relatable fabrication careers. Sean as a millwork fabricator and Colleen as an orthopaedic surgeon each rely on precision tools to accomplish their work. In construction terms “kerf” is the gap left after sawing through material, the thickness of the blade. Finding meaning in these small gaps of life is where Sean and Colleen thrive.

I'm a builder in as broad a scope as possible: things, business, relationships, ideas, etc. I believe there is always room for improvement, no matter how small, in everything we do.

Role

Occupation
I am a pediatric orthopaedic surgeon. I love helping kiddos be active and healthy through creative play, adaptive equipment, and surgical intervention. I am privileged to care for tiny humans at critical points in their development.
Car Memory
When I was in high school, one of my friends taught me how to drive manual transmission the hard way - in stop-and-go rush hour traffic on one of the busiest streets in our town!
Self Described As

Fun Fact
I like to do handstands wherever I travel.
Dream Car

Objectives
Making it to Day 3 with a new teammate who has no roadbook experience - we are looking forward to learning new roles during this rally experience. I anticipate having to be the realist and tempering the rookie enthusiasm of my co-driver who likes to be the best at everything. Winning doesn’t always mean standing on a podium
Greatest Adventure
Tackling the Rebelle Rally 2022 with my ride-or-die, Shea Freeman.

Role
Driver
Occupation
Architectural Millwork Fabricator and Entrepreneur. We make interior dreams come true. We take an architect's paper renderings and turn them into real life. Every project and day is different with its own set of challenges.
Car Memory
Almost every stage of my life has been defined by/bookmarked by cars. My earliest memories are going on road trips with my parents and grandparents. I learned to drive standard on an old SUV through my neighborhood years before it was allowed. I totaled my attainable dream car 1 month after I bought it when I was 19. I drove a Jeep 2/3's of the way across the country to play in the sand in Moab. I bought a Porsche 911 off Bring A Trailer on an accidental single bid that ended up being the last.
Self Described As
I'm a builder in as broad a scope as possible: things, business, relationships, ideas, etc. I believe there is always room for improvement, no matter how small, in everything we do.
Fun Fact
I'll try just about anything at least once, which is how I ended up here.
Dream Car
Porsche Carrera GT
Objectives
To not finish last. I'm too competitive to be last at anything.
Greatest Adventure
Driving to Moab, UT for Easter Jeep Safari.
