Technician/Owner
2002–2021
over the past 10 years i owned and operated Precision Automotive. Located in Vine Grove KY. I over saw the logistics behind everyday shop duties and operations and proved to be a great addition to the local and surrounding community. I specialized in thorough quality repair, service and efficient diagnostics. Offering hundred percent no guess work repair and diag. For several years prior i worked at two different location, Bachman vw and prior and afterwards Payless mufflers and Brakes. I at that point decided to extend my knowledge and understanding of the advancing automotive industry to owning and operating a Independent shop, specializing in import and European performance but quickly realized the need for OEM service diagnostics and repair were essential to maintaining business and a solid customer base. My philosophy was to gain a customer through diagnostic work and if they understood that you are efficiently diagnosing there car with out guessing, then they would trust you to fix any other mechanical arear of there vehicle. This proved to be a great direction for me and my brother.
I stepped down at the beginning of the year due to circumstances that i can not go into however i currently work at Ford and am seeking employment in which I can utilize and grow as a thorough diagnostician and tech within the Independent filed again as i have a love for this particular area and part of this industry. I understand repairs proceed the diag and I am fully aware financially that repair work is key to hours and sustains the lucrative side and growth of any business. thank you
