Guest: Eliza Leon - Technician, Off-Roader, TV Host and all around boss!

The daughter of a diesel mechanic, Eliza Leon's path seemed destined. After learning to wrench on her uncle's trucks, by junior high she already knew she would be enrolling in automotive technical school at her high school. After high school she landed her first job as an apprentice at a local transmission shop. Though she dabbled with a career in public policy in D.C., she quickly learned that the automotive world was still calling her. Eliza has been a heavy line technician, bodyman helper, service writer, body shop estimator and auto insurance damage adjuster, and most recently a Co-host for XOR – Xtreme Off-Road. Her passion is encouraging young people to learn the trades and for women to enter into and stay in the trades.
