About Me:
With the first turn of events taking place after serving four years in the Marine Corps and then a year later graduating from a technical college for autobody my journey in PDR began. In 1999 a small company called Dent and Scratch Magician hired me directly from that autobody school and taught me PDR. Our main and really only competitor was Dent Wizard, who not be known to me, was in the process of buying our company. Almost two years later with a baby on the way and committed to my first mortgage Dent Wizard acquired us. With little choice and time I signed their contract and spent the next 17 years honing my PDR skills.  From dealer routes to auctions and retail to hail, I consistently performed at a recognized high-level. Resigning in 2018 from Dent Wizard I have been traveling nationwide repairing hail damage vehicles. I love what I do and always have.  I am a Hail Trainer graduate and am IMI EV 2 certified. I also have multiple memberships and subscriptions to keep abreast with new trends in the industry. I am focused on obtaining more certifications and knowledge in this great industry and will never stop trying to “Get Better” every day.
