Owner
I was a tech at the time, when the owner left and had not notified anyone. Choices were, walk away, or I had to find a way to legally own the business, keep and lead the current employees, become profitable and make a life for all of us. Thanks to the entire team and we became a great shop. It was a good test of research, resource and leadership.

Certifications and additional information
I have had continued training and education for the past 40 years. My field required it to keep up with automotive advancements and changing times. I have spent more than 100 hrs. per year training. Training consisted of ATI training and couching events, ATE seminars and classes. Seminars at Bates college, WA. Field vender seminars, ASE training and certifications, round table groups and ASA. I spend a lot of additional time reading leadership and personal growth material. I apologize, but I have not kept track of the dates, times and certifications.
