I have over 17 years of experience in all collision and mechanical engineering. As a child, I was really fascinated by old skool cars and I was intrigued by how they function. In 2005, due to not being able to pay high costs for getting my car repaired at an auto shop, I decided to repair it on my own in my house garage. It is where my passion for vehicles began to grow even more and I discovered that I enjoyed working with cars. My family and friends began to bring in their cars for repairs into my house garage. During this time, I would also spend countless hours studying, reading every car manual, and working in local auto shops to retain as much knowledge and hands-on experience as I could. Immediately, after a year of learning and growing, I opened my first auto body and paint shop in North Hollywood, California. Within that first month, I made $17,000 on my own! I then moved my shop to the San Fernando Valley. In 2017, my family and I transitioned to Kansas City, MO. I took off a year in working, and a year after God opened a door for us to open Arise KC. I believe that Arise KC is God's gift to us and I am happy to help you with any of your vehicle's needs! From maintenance to all mechanical work, auto body paint, and car detailing. I highly value honesty and transparency in working with you.
