Position:
/ Master TechnicianAbout Mike
Mike has been in Virginia his whole life but was originally from Fairfax, VA, where he lived until a few years ago. Mike is our go-to Mercedes-Benz and Sprinter Specialist. He had been working for Mercedes for the last 14 years as a Master Technician until he joined our team in 2019. He attended Annandale High School in Northern Virginia before going to UTI in Houston, Texas, and then going on to complete the Mercedes-Benz ELITE Program in Allentown, PA.
Mike first got into cars when he was in High School when he enrolled in his first Automotive Tech Class. On the weekends, he was always hanging out with his friends, trying to fix their cars. He’s been passionate about them ever since! Mike is a true Mercedes enthusiast and loves the incredible amount of technology that cars today are equipped with. He also loves the passion that “gearheads” have for their cars and brands.
There’s not really a type of music that Mike doesn’t like. He enjoys Classic Rock, Country, Alternative, Jazz, and Classic Hip-Hop. His diverse taste makes it easy to pick a Pandora station.
Mike married his lovely wife JenÃĐe in August of 2012. They now live in Chesterfield, VA with their two kids, Greyson and Aizley.
The upbeat attitude is Mike’s favorite part about being at The Shop, as well as the whole team’s passion for the cars we work on. He also loves the amount of love and dedication that is put into each car serviced.
