Rollin Hansen of Auto Tech and Body in Roselle, IL, has been named the TECH-NET Professional Auto Service/ASE Master Automotive Technician of the Year for 2009. He was selected for the award after meeting the criteria set by CARQUEST.
“Being ASE certified, gives me a huge sense of pride,” said Hansen, an ASE Master Technician with 35 years of experience. “I enjoy being a technician because of the repeated short term gratification of solving problems. With all the new systems and models coming out every year, each and every vehicle is a fun, new, learning experience. When traveling, and facing the unlikely event of mechanical breakdown, my comfort level goes way up when I see the “ASE Certified” sign on the front of the repair shop I am going to.”
Hansen is employed by Auto Tech and Body which is a member of TECH-NET Professional Auto Service, an elite performance network, where independent service facilities share common goals of being world-class automotive service centers. Membership in TECH-NET is reserved only for the best professional independent automotive service facilities across North America that adhere to the strictest standards set forth by CARQUEST.
