Ariana Patino

Garden Grove,CA

Summary

My name is Ariana Patino and my whole life I have always been trying to surpass expectations for those around me. As a female in the automotive field, I can safely say I was the only female in college there yet I graduated with honors and beat the stigma that girls cannot be automotive technicians. I have always been a believer in the philosophy that employees do not quit on a company rather than the manage. My time with Meineke Car Care is a bi-product of that as the job was something I really loved but management was never on the same page. BSRO (Bridgestone/Firestone) is the closest I've had to a perfect job however due to family issues that was short lived. Despite all these obstacles, I have maintained a positive attitude in life and kept my mind open to a multitude of possibilities in the work field
