Let me tell you a little about myself...

I was born in Seattle, Washington in 1951 and have spent all of my life on the West Coast. Currently I live just south of Los Angeles in Garden Grove, California.

Growing up on a farm not only taught me the value of hard work but, it was the beginning of my interest in all things mechanical. In total I have nearly 40 years of experience:

- 15 years in parts (automotive, agricultural & industrial)
- 16 years as a service advisor / manager
- 5 years as a technician (automotive & industrial)
- 2 years in automotive sales

For the past 5 years I have been doing on-line automotive parts sales at MercedesShop.com. I enjoy helping people find the right parts for their cars at great prices. During this time I have been fortunate to meet several of our customers "virtually" and in real life at various outings. It's a great community and I appreciate the many repeat customers I have that trust me with their business time and time again.

When I'm not tending to sales my real loves are my lady, Marie, cooking and running the karaoke on Friday nights at the Moose Lodge. The photo above was taken on a calmer night at the Moose!

Thank you for entrusting your business with me. I look forward to helping in any way I can.

Sincerely,

Phil
