Summary

Passionate about automobiles since childhood, I began my journey as a trainee technician, mastering diagnostics and automobile components. As I progressed, I took on leadership roles, training teams, and managing customer complaints, gaining soft skills that strengthened my role as a service advisor. My dedication led me to become a certified service advisor and later a workshop manager, expanding my expertise in warranty claims, insurance, and workshop operations. Advancing further, I managed body shops and branches, honing my skills in parts management and service excellence. Today, as a general manager, I lead service branches with confidence, teamwork, and a commitment to excellence.
