Jason Sinclair
Estimator | 20+ Years Experience
I have been in and around the automotive business since 2000 as a new car prep technician, service technician, and service advisor/manager. I grew up in the area and still currently reside here. I like to spend my free time golfing, spending time on the water boating and spending time with family and friends. In the spring of 2017, I had Hassis Paintworks do some major structural work on my boat. From start to finish on this project the communication on the work that needed to be performed and the timeline of this repair was explained to me down to the last detail and in a very professional manner. The end product was amazing! A few years have passed and I am excited to have joined their outstanding team in bringing top notch customer service and outstanding workmanship on any job big or small.
Justin Lillo
Estimator | 10+ Years Experience
Living in Stillwater for most of my life, I have grown to love the life this river town has to offer. My younger years were dotted with canoe trips up the St. Croix River and numerous solo trips in my kayak. Aside from my time outdoors, I always had an interest in cars. I started repairing my first few vehicles when I was 16 and never stopped. I graduated century college with an auto body technician degree and worked as a technician for 10 years. I was given several "open doors" in my career that allowed me to escalate my understanding of the industry. One of the most notable experiences was working with veteran estimators and blueprinters that taught me how to document damage and write a thorough, honest estimate. I sincerely believe that I have learned from some of the most knowledgeable people in the local industry. I have been given a unique opportunity at Hassis Paintworks to combine my love of the water and my experience in the automotive industry to help my friends and neighbors in the river valley get back on the road or in the water! Whatever your repair needs may be, I'm excited to help!
Todd Dorr
Estimator | 15+ Years Experience
I am from New Richmond, WI where I was born and raised. I attended Chippewa Valley Technical College in 2009-2010 where I received my diploma in Auto Collision Repair. Following graduation, I started my career at Marquardt in Lake Hallie and then moved to closer to home and worked at Bernard's Northtown in New Richmond till 2016. I also went to California in 2011 and received my certification in Paintless Dent Repair (PDR). In 2016, I started working at Hassis Paintworks. Outside of work I enjoy hunting goose, coyote, and deer. I also enjoy riding my motorcycle, along with the projects my wife starts and needs me to help her with.
Mike Parks
Fiberglass Repair Technician | 40+ Years Experience
I started my career at Johnson Boat Works in 1983. My dad was a boat builder and made all the molds. There I began working in the fiberglass shop where I learned boat building and mold making. When the company sold, I went on my own doing repairs for marinas and customers. In 2003, my dad and I had the opportunity to build a 38 foot racing "A" scow for Brad Robinson. We started with a rough plug and proceeded to build the molds and then the boat. It was named Victory and for good reason. I've met many great people in the boating world. Now, I am working for Hassis. Chris, Jana and our crew are superior. There is literally nothing we can't fix and the quality of our work is outstanding. I know how boats are built and the strength/cosmetics it takes to repair a boat properly.
Jason Rogers
Refinish Technician | 25 Years Experience
I have worked on basically everything, including: airplanes, boats, tractors, collector cars/trucks, race cars, European war plane, every type of automobile, motorcycles, campers, etc. I started working as an autobody technician/painter in 1997 part time and then transitioned to full time in 1999. I am a hardworker, problem solver, and I pay attention to detail. I was born and raised in New Richmond, WI. I enjoy hunting, being outdoors, riding motorcycle, shooting trap, and spending time at our cabin with my wife and our 2 dogs.
Bill Teskey
Automotive Repair Technician | 35+ Years Experience
I graduated from Dunwoody college of Technology, in the field of autobody repair, in the early 80's with a 4.0 GPA. Since then, I have been repairing cars and trucks for 37 years. I have become I-CAR Platinum Certified and ASE Master Tech Certified. I also have 3 welding certifications in Steel MIG, Aluminum MIG, and Silica Bronze. I have been doing Paintless Dent Repair (PDR) for 24 years as it has become a very popular way of removing minor door dings and hail damage without having to paint you r vehicle. I have been married to a wonderful woman for 33 years and have a son, daughter, and 5 grandchildren. In my spare time I enjoy working around my home, playing with my German Shepard and riding my Harley Davidson motorcycle.
Robbie Stenger
Fiberglass & Body Repair Technician | 25+ Years Experience
In 1992, I started detailing cars for my dad, family, and friends. Few years later I started working at an auto body repair facility where I also worked on boats doing fiberglass, gelcoat, structure repairs, stringer, transom, and core replacements. After 13 years, I decided to try a couple different things such as starting my own business and also working in the Aero Space field. In 2015, I started working for Afton Yacht Club doing fiberglass and gelcoat repairs. My biggest accomplishment was when I restored a 1974 Chris Craft boat from keel to flybridge, removing soft floors to refinishing the entire boat. A few years later I took a position at Kings Cove Marina running their fiberglass and gelcoat department. In 2022, I joined the Hassis Paintworks team. I work on both aluminum boats, fiberglass boats, personal watercrafts, trailers, and recreational vehicles - our team is top notch.
In my spare time I enjoy boating on the river in my Eliminator boat, going to my kids’ sports, and spending time with family and friends.
Darrell Erickson

I started at Sunrise Fiberglass where I worked for 7 years building Sugar Sand jet boats and Gecko ski boats. Next, I went to Premier Marine and built molds and parts for pontoons until the business relocated to Big Lake. I continued to build molds, but this time I was creating molds for the Varatti wake boat and doing gelcoat work. In 2023, I started at Hassis Paintworks doing both fiberglass and gelcoat work. In my past time, I enjoy hunting, fishing, and spending time with my wife and our four boys camping.
