This shop is owned and operated by a former aerospace engineer, a veteran, and a lifelong gearhead who’s spent more time under the hood than behind a desk. We work on all makes and models — domestic, foreign, modern, and classic — and we treat every car like it’s got a story worth finishing.

Our passion (and let’s be honest, our headaches) are cars. This isn’t a side hustle or a hobby — it’s who we are and what we do. Whether it’s your daily driver, a weekend toy, or a long-lost project waiting to come alive, we’ve got the tools, the tech, and the stubbornness to do it right.

Need advanced diagnostics? We’ve got it covered. Looking at a used car? We offer full pre-sale inspections. Want something a little less local? We can source and import foreign vehicles, too — no mystery paperwork, no dead ends.

We’re fully insured and we stand behind our work 100%. This place runs on skill, honesty, and a healthy respect for the grind. We don’t just want customers — we build relationships with people who want their cars treated right.

Meet the Team AT AUTOMEND

It all began with a dream to be able to stand on one’s own feet while doing what you enjoy.

Meet the team behind the grease.

  • About the Owner

    Quentin is the owner, lead mechanic, and the reason this shop runs the way it does — with precision, grit, and a deep love for anything on wheels. A former aerospace engineer and a proud veteran, he brings both technical expertise and hands-on experience to every project.

    Whether he’s doing routine maintenance or tackling a full custom build, Quentin is the one under the hood, behind the diagnostics, and covered in grease. He’s serious about doing the job right — and standing behind every bit of work that leaves the bay.


  • About the Shop Dog

    Kora is the shop dog and official morale booster. She’s an Italian Greyhound who accompanies Quentin to the shop every day, usually making her rounds before settling into her favorite cozy spot.

    She loves plastic water bottles, meeting new people, and riding around on Quentin’s shoulder like she owns the place — which, to be fair, she kind of does. If you stop by, there’s a good chance she’ll greet you with a toy and a tail wag.

    Her favorite color is gurple.

  • About the Admin

    While Q’s under the hood, she’s behind the screen — handling the shop’s website, social media, and all things digital. She keeps things organized, makes sure communication runs smoothly, and brings a whole lot of support and motivation to the table. You won’t find her covered in grease (she’s 99% remote work), but she’s a big part of what keeps the shop running strong behind the scenes.
