Brandy Goff is an automotive technician in Maryland. She has over 7 years of experience in the field, but her love for cars began when she was a young girl watching her father and grandfather work on their racing car projects in their garage.

Kathreen had this to say, "After returning to my roots I decided to step out of my father and brothers shadows and try my hand with interior work. I have had experience with sewing clothes and such, my mother and I made my prom dress. I also made a few dresses and blankets on my own. So I thought upholstery is just thicker material and bigger machines, I was pretty right on that. I acquired a 1953 Pfaff industrial sewing machine and scrap boat materials, I then dove head first into the sewing."
