Guest Bio:
Riley Schlick's journey in the auto industry at the age of 13 began when she founded a classic car carburetor restoration company in her family’s garage called Riley’s Rebuilds.
Over the past five years, the company has grown, now employing four high school students who rebuild carburetors twice a week, generating enough income to fund their car projects, insurance, gas, and other activities.
In 2022, Riley’s business went viral on social media, capturing the attention of automotive aftermarket nationwide. Since then, she’s been featured in top magazines and TV shows, including Stacy David’s Gearz, All Girls Garage, and many more. She sees herself as a youth ambassador in the automotive industry, driven by her passion for the field.
