Staff
TireProz Team
A bunch of local people that will ensure the job gets done right the first time!
Jay Sr. "The Captain"
Owner - jfandrews@tireproz.com
Jay is the owner and founder of TireProz. He’s the brains behind our operation from the original conception and has inspired everything that we are today. He has been in the tire and auto repair industry for 35 years! He’s extremely friendly and helpful, and with his background in the industry, it seems everyone knows him! We’re fortunate to have him as our role model, and our customers can always trust Jay to cure their vehicle’s woes with a smile.
Jay Jr. (JJ) "The Coordinator"
Operations Manager - jjandrews@tireproz.com
JJ has been working with this company truly since day one, setting up our tire installation bay, and using his 5 years of previous experience doing all of the installation himself. In fact, ever since he was a kid, JJ has always been mechanically inclined. Now, as Operations Manager, he uses this skill in his observation of workflow. In addition, he specializes in wheels and aftermarket accessories, earning the SEMA Z-5 Custom Tire & Wheel Certification. You can always depend on JJ for straight-forward advice.
Judd "The Perfectionist"
Sales Manager - jdandrews@tireproz.com
Judd joined in with TireProz shortly after his brother, JJ, as the business grew. Also gaining his education in hands-on experience, Judd’s 4 years of experience as a tire technician gives him the knowledge to find the perfect set of tires and wheels for your car. Judd is SEMA Z-5 certified as a tire and wheel specialist and will soon earn a bachelor’s degree in Entrepreneurship and Family Studies from the University of St. Thomas. You can rely on Judd’s extensive education and thorough (alright, picky) style to get the job done perfectly, from routine maintenance or repair to putting 22’s on your car or even ATV!
Ryan "The Guru"
Service Manager - rgugg@tireproz.com
Ryan has been with TireProz since the beginning and we don't know what we'd do without him. He wears many hats, but his primary duty is to oversee the workflow in the shop, perform quality control and produce estimates. However, he is an ASE- Certified previous lead-technician and is highly skilled in mechanical repair. Therefore, he oftentimes steps into the role of technician when we need him to and does an exemplary job. With Ryan’s extensive training and experience with mechanical work as well as in customer service, you can rest easy that even the most complicated of jobs will be handled to perfection when you pick your vehicle up.
Keith "The Transformer"
Service Technician
Keith came on board over 3 years ago now. Keith has an infatuation for classic vehicles, and his custom work is quite impressive! He’s the aftermarket and electrical whiz on our team. Keith has over 15 years of experience with building conversion vehicles, and can handle any custom job we throw at him, whether it be remote starters, lift kits, lowering kits, lighting, exhaust, cold air intakes, etc., he’s done it all.
Holden "The Wheel Specialist"
Tire Technician
Holden was a great addition to our crew when he came to us in 2008 from the corporate world of Tires Plus. He came to us with a basic understanding of passenger car tire installation and has developed a proficient skill in aftermarket wheel & tire installation. With Holden’s experience, he has no problem handling the most difficult or high-end tire and wheel packages. On a nice weekend, you can find Holden in the mud bog with his Sky-high 1998 Chevy truck or terrorizing the streets on his new R6!
Josh "The Class Clown"
General Service Technician
Josh is a proud Wyotech graduate and has been putting his skills to the test here at TireProz since 2006. He is passionate about his work and loves what he does. With 7+ years of automotive experience, you can be sure he'll get the job done right. In Josh's spare time, you can find him cruising in his truck on and off the beaten path!
Aaron "The Inspector"
Service Technician
Aaron is a recent addition to our team, coming to us in 2009 from a Ford dealership. With his dealership background, he takes pride in making sure your vehicle has been inspected completely, going through ALL systems with a "fine-tooth comb". Aaron will help you avoid hearing that dreaded “Do you know why I stopped you today?” after getting stopped for the notorious license plate light out. He will keep you protected, but don’t plan on beating him in a race! Aaron is a muscle car fanatic and displays his passion through his ’73 Plymouth Scamp.
Dennis "The Legend"
Lead Service Technician
Dennis has been a well-known mechanical expert in the area for over 20 years and we're thrilled to have recently brought him on our team in 2009. From early American muscle to late model import and domestic vehicles, Dennis has seen it, fixed it, and moved on to learn more about the next one. He takes pride in making sure your vehicle is fixed right the first time. Dennis has been an excellent addition to our team, contributing extensive mechanical knowledge and a greatly appreciated ability to explain complicated mechanical issues in an understandable manner. Dennis looks forward to helping our customers.
Jeff "Probie"
Tire Technician / Technician Apprentice
Jeff is our newest addition to the team in 2009. He came on in early November after recently graduating from U.T.I. (University Technical Institute) in 2009 studying Automotive Repair, where he graduated at the top of his class. Jeff’s basic mechanical aptitude and understanding are incredible, he is always interested in learning something new. Jeff carries his enthusiasm and energy with him in whatever he is working on and looks forward to expanding on his mechanical knowledge by shadowing our highly-trained technicians.
