JC spent 15+ years as a certified Master Mechanic before trading the shop for the keyboard. He's worked across dealerships, owned and operated his own independent garage, and consulted on automotive trade school curricula, reviewing technical textbooks used in vocational programs.

He now serves as Editor-in-Chief at emanuals.ai, where he oversees the platform's technical content. He's one of the few voices in automotive publishing who turned wrenches professionally for decades before he had a byline.
