Body Shop Staff

After graduating from Yale High School, I started working at Cawood as a body/frame technician. I worked my way up to estimator, then the management position that I am in today. I am truly blessed to be able to work with and manage such a good group of people. My passion for repairing vehicles began once I started attending the St Clair TEC Center. I have 4 wonderful boys and enjoy watching them play basketball, football and lacrosse.

I have been fortunate to work for such a great company for almost 14 years now, and have made many wonderful friends along the way. My children are my greatest joy and they keep me very busy with sports and other activities. Time spent with my family, friends, and nice weather outdoors is my favorite.

I started my career at the young age of 12 years old, working part time in a salvage yard, learning to dismantle wrecked vehicles. Then I learned how to re-assemble them. Here I am, 46 years later at Cawood, truly enjoying what I do. My favorite hobby is hunting! It is just like repairing vehicles, you have to be really good at it or you go home hungry.

I have been working in the auto body industry for 26 years. I enjoy spending time with my family, whether it's just hanging out at home or catching a movie together. In my spare time I enjoy working on my classic cars and walking my dogs.

I have been detailing vehicles and boats for over 26 years. In my spare time I really enjoy going to the gym and power lifting weights, spending time with my six grandchildren, and taking family trips to Cedar Pointe.
