Glenn Raith,
Owner and Red Seal Technician & Transmission Specialist

Growing up on a vineyard and having a dad as a builder, I was always helping my dad with projects, either building things or fixing equipment.

In high school, I decided to take an automotive course. With levels one and two finished, my teacher made a level three, so I could continue learning the trade. I was the only one in the class. Post-secondary I completed my machinist apprenticeship, becoming a Red Seal in that trade. I furthered my education and became a certified Red Seal Automotive Service Technician.
 
I was a NAPA AutoCare for years, becoming a NAPA AUTOPRO 7 years ago. I started doing mobile mechanics, travelling to many farms in the Okanagan. In 1992, I decided to open my own shop. I am celebrating 30 years in business this year.
 

Walter,
Technician

I've been interested in separating things and putting them together from a young age. This passion carried over to working on my vehicles once I was old enough to drive and eventually getting into the automotive repair industry.
 
Time away from work has me busy with family and our two dogs, Tucker and Cooper. Hobbies take care of the remaining time with skiing in the winter and hiking and flying radio control airplanes in the other seasons.

Dominik,
Technician

Hello, my name is Dominik. I grew up on a farm in Salmon Arm. Surrounded by machinery, I learned early about fixing and maintaining vehicles. I started my apprenticeship straight out of high school and developed a strong passion for the trade.

In my spare time, I enjoy snowboarding, paintballing, mountain biking, and road trips on my motorcycle.

Matthew,
Technician

I'm Matt, a journeyman automotive service technician. I have been wrenching professionally since 2007. I grew up in Saskatchewan and moved to Kelowna in 2017.
 
I like hanging out on my boat, working on my truck, camping, and sitting by the fire in my spare time.
