I began my career in the automotive industry by complete accident. My original intention was to major in computer science and work in that field. My high school had an internship program with dealerships and started working as an express maintenance technician in 2006. After graduating highschool in 2006 I began Toyota’s Certification program and by 2011 I was a ToyotaMaster Diagnostic Technician. I continued to diagnose and repair Toyotas until 2018. I made the transition to service advisor and grew my skill set in multiple facets, including PROASM recognition in 2021. A management opportunity in Lugoff Toyota’s Parts Department opened in 2022 and I accepted the challenge to meet and exceed the current level of the department. The Parts Department grew over the course of the year in preparation to accepting the position of Service Manager this past May.
