Rex Freiberger
CEO
About Me: I’m the CEO of Stick Shifting and a lifelong car enthusiast with an enduring love for raw, analog driving experiences. Whether I’m analyzing chassis balance or championing the manual gearbox, I bring the same precision and passion to Stick Shifting that has fueled my entire career.
Expertise: My passion for cars runs alongside my broader work in media. I’ve founded and led editorial platforms like Music Minds and The Call Of, and I developed the True Score and Trust Rating systems at Gadget Review, helping redefine how consumers evaluate products online.
Qualifications: Over the years, I’ve worn many hats—entrepreneur, publisher, actor, and creative producer. I taught at Assumption University in Thailand, founded my first company (Highly Relevant), and successfully sold it to Wpromote in 2014. Across all of these ventures, one thing has remained constant: my commitment to meaningful, high-impact work rooted in curiosity and craft.
