Can you tell us more about what you do at YourMechanic?

I am a Senior Account Manager at YourMechanic. I handle most of the pilot programs within the fleet side of the business. My focus is creating Standard Operating Procedures and building out training process documents for the Business & Development team. I also manage YourMechanic's Pre-Paid Maintenance program that we introduce to new clients.

Why did you join YourMechanic?

I had previous auto industry experience by working for a company called Shift. I like startups that are truly disruptive. When I saw the potential in YourMechanic's fleet business, I decided to join.

What’s your dream car?

I am a huge movie fanatic, and it would be awesome to have the tumbler from Batman Begins. There is a company that started making these vehicles, and they are street legal. Driving the Batmobile on the freeway would be cool!

What one accomplishment are you most proud of?

I founded and coached a nationally ranked collegiate paintball team. We placed 6th during our first national competition. Our group was televised and mentioned in paintball magazines. Some students made their college decision on the fact that Santa Clara University had a competitive paintball club program.

Describe yourself in one word.

Positive.

Do you have a favorite quote? If so, what is it?

“The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.” - Edmund Burke

As a kid, what did you want to be when you grow up?

A Navy Seal. Even though I served as the United States Army National Guard, there was a part of me that wished I went down that road to further serve my country as a special operations team member.
