Matthew has been a valued member of the Vernon Hyundai and has been a serrvice technician going on 7 years. His love for vehicles inspired him to join the automotive industry, and what keeps him here is the strong sense of camaraderie—whether it’s team lunches, dinners, or trips, he enjoys being part of a group that feels like family.
When he’s not in the shop, Matthew can often be found road-tripping through the Okanagan. If he could pick any vehicle for the perfect adventure, it would be a Genesis Coupe, combining performance with style. Locally, he recommends grabbing a bite at CountryTyme in Coldstream.
Before his career in automotive, Matthew could see himself working in diamond drilling or the oil field. A fun fact many don’t know—he once accidentally fell into a campfire (and lived to tell the tale!).
His best advice for first-time Hyundai buyers? Take your test drive without music—listen closely to how the vehicle sounds and feels overall.
To Matthew, Vernon Hyundai can be summed up in three words: enjoyable, learning, and team.
