Meet The Team
We are proud to be a family operation.
A lot of love goes into fixing your vehIcle, and everyone does their part around here.
Eli has been putting things back together since he was old enough to take them apart. With a love for fast vehicles and loud engines, a career in mechanics seemed the natural choice. He started at a car dealership in his hometown of Charlotte, North Carolina, and eventually joined the Air Force, earning a bunch of degrees and certifications along the way, including his Associates Degree in Automotive Systems Engineering, and an Aerospace Propulsion Systems Engineering Certification - none of which are as impressive to his family as his ability to eradicate a large spider. Nevertheless, he decided to use his 20+ years of experience and education to build a business he could be proud of, and to provide something he saw a shortage of: honest, quality auto repair and maintenance, at a fair and affordable price. Plus, his wife said he has to be able to take birthdays and anniversaries off.
Nicole is a Massachusetts native who spent her roaring twenties traveling the country gaining rich experiences and meeting a diverse array of people. She met her husband in Asheville, North Carolina, after accidentally letting her car run out of oil and asking a friend to recommend a good mechanic.These days she can be found handing out snacks, or updating spreadsheets in the back office. Her favorite things include uninterrupted sleep, tacos, and color-coded filing systems.
Vera has been managing the people around her for as long as she can remember. Motivated and assertive, she prides herself in her ability to solve problems and delegate tasks. She can be found around the shop guiding productivity, and assisting in every department. She isn’t afraid to get her hands dirty, and that’s just one of the many things that make her a good boss. When she’s not working, she enjoys dancing, coloring, and risking her life in small acts of daredevilry.
This mechanic-in-training is learning the trade with hands-on experience. As the shop’s resident muscle, Adam assists wherever he is needed. From pushing cars to lifting engines, he handles most of the heavier labor with ease and a positive attitude. When he’s not rebuilding motors, he enjoys cooking, bowling, and playing music.
Jerry is the uncle we all wish we had grown up with. In fact, we love him so much that we have adopted him into our family with no chance of escape. His long history with both marine and automotive mechanics has turned him into a deep well of knowledge, and a valuable asset to our team.
