Meet Tyler

A Note from me

I’ve spent a long time around cars — long enough to know that most people don’t struggle with choosing a car, they struggle with everything that comes with the decision.

The pressure. The noise. The feeling that you’re supposed to move faster than you’re comfortable with. The sense that everyone involved has an angle, and you’re left trying to sort out what actually makes sense for you.

That’s where I’ve always felt most useful — slowing things down, asking better questions, and helping people think clearly before they commit. Not because there’s one right answer, but because car decisions tend to stick with us longer than we expect. The payments, the repairs, the trade-offs — they all show up later.

Crossroads Car Coaching grew out of that belief. It’s built around one-on-one conversations, honest context, and the idea that waiting can sometimes be the smartest move. My role isn’t to push a transaction forward — it’s to help you understand your options well enough to choose with confidence.

Cars have always been part of my life — and part of my family’s story. I’m a third-generation automotive professional rooted in Indiana and a registered auto dealer in the state, but more than anything, I’ve spent my career trying to understand how cars fit into people’s lives. Early on, I built an event production business centered around local motorsports and automotive philanthropy, using cars as a way to bring people together and give back to the community. Later, I founded Indianapolis’ premier do-it-yourself auto service garage, focused on education, transparency, and helping people feel more confident around their vehicles.

All of that experience shapes how I approach this work today — thoughtfully, patiently, and with a long-term perspective in mind. Whether you’re buying, selling, trading, or decide to wait, my goal is simple: to help you make a decision you still feel good about when the excitement fades and real life takes over.
