EP.60: Dez Ferrell—We Must Experience the Bad to Appreciate the Good! Aug 26, 2020

Show notes

Dez Ferrell is in the driver seat today. She owns and manages her own shop, Nessy's Kustoms, focused on custom paint and restoration in Mesa, Arizona. She was recently a featured contestant on Motor Trend's Bitchen Bootcamp. She did not grow up in a shop, nor did she have an interest in cars for most of her life. It wasn't until she owned a Honda Accord that introduced her to the import scene that was going on about 14 years ago. For Dez it was never a question of why would she ever want to be in a male-dominated industry and fight to constantly prove her skills to the non-believers, it was why wouldn't she? In those moments when she wanted to give up and quit, she found a way to push forward. For each struggle it made her wiser and for each failure brought her another step towards success.
