From Villa Guerrero, Mexico To San Jose CA

     At 20 years old I came to California and began working on an assembly line at a cable company where I learned the basics of cable production and blueprint reading/analyzing. After 10 years of repetitive yet self-rewarding work, I left to obtain improved benefits and expand my expertise in appliance repair at a department store. Eventually, I was presented with the opportunity to focus my skill-set on cars. During a cumulative 13 years of working for two large dealerships, I realized my admiration for the engine operations of a car.

 

    Throughout these years as a mechanic, my interest in creating a business of my own emerged. Of course, first I needed to gain a certain level of management experience. So once again I changed jobs and decided to work for a local body shop business in Sunnyvale. Working here allowed me to figure out what does and does not work when managing a business.

 

    Finally, after 5 years, I made the jump to build my own mechanic and small scratch repair shop. Now two years in, I have learned an abundance and have pushed myself out of my comfort zone so much more than I thought possible. To family and friends who believe in me and have given me the strength to push through the challenging times, from the bottom of my heart, I thank you and appreciate you.
