    Owner

    I was employed as a technician in a local repair shop from 1971-1982; it was in that year that I decided to establish my own business, and I have never looked back. 2012 marks my thirtieth anniversary as a shop owner. I have spent hundreds of hours attending training courses conducted by Bosch, NAPA, BMW, General Motors, Ford, Benz, Nissan, Honda, Chrysler and Toyota, among others.

    I have been an ASE-certified technician since 1974 and achieved Master Technician status in 1980. Additionally, I have been an ASE Advanced Engine Performance (L1) Certified Technician since 1995. I have been a past finalist in the NAPA Technician of the Year competition (ten times), and in 1999 I was doubly blessed: I was named the Fluke Engine Performance Specialist Technician of the Year and was a finalist in the AC-Delco Technician of the Millennium Contest, one of only 72 in the nation. I am also a writer, having written four automotive instructor training manuals for Delmar Publishers.

    My hobbies include spending as much time as possible with my children and long distance running. I finished Grandma's Marathon and the Chicago Marathon in 1999, the Marine Corps Marathon in 2000, the New York City Marathon in 2002 and the Marine Corps Marathon in 2006.
