Elliott Filippelli Auto Body & Refinishing Prep Technician

The past few years have been a roller coaster ride for me as I was unsure of what to do with the rest of my life. I knew that I wanted to be involved with cars in some way, and being an artist, led me to consider an art form in the Automotive Industry. I decided to become an auto body painter. Now that’s exactly what I am as I have successfully graduated from the Automotive Training Centre Auto Body & Refinishing program.

With a whole new love for employment, I have been hired by the company where I completed my Practicum – I am now working Monday to Friday at a job I very much enjoy.
I would like to extend a very special thank you to my teacher, Jason Zemaitis. Without Jason driving me to move forward or his way of teaching which was a perfect fit for me, I would not be where I am today.

Thank you ATC!
