Daily Inspiration: Meet Tyler Sanchez

Today we’d like to introduce you to Tyler Sanchez

Hi Tyler, we’re thrilled to have a chance to learn your story today. So, before we get into specifics, maybe you can briefly walk us through how you got to where you are today?
Hey, Y’all my name is Tyler Sanchez! I grew up in San Diego, California. Ever since I was a kid I have always loved race cars, hot rods and motorcycles and skateboarding. My grandpa built and raced race cars at El Cajon Speedway and other tracks when I was young, so that inspired me to start fixing up and rebuilding hot rods and race cars as I got older. I enjoy creating and inspiring others through my book and creative work, and I hope to help inspire the next generation of gear heads!

We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
Life has always been a struggle my parents were very young when they had me and brother. Grew up in sec 8 apartments in San Diego and Las Vegas, I believe it was skateboarding and cars is what helped me get though rough times in my childhood and early adulthood moved back from Vegas when I was 16 in with grandparents. Built and fixed up classic cars to earn cash always had a classic car since I was 17 years old. Moved to Northern California in my 20s for work, always was into hot rods and rat rods built and traded a lot then moved back to San Diego recently to be with family.

As you know, we’re big fans of you and your work. For our readers who might not be as familiar what can you tell them about what you do?
I love to work on hot rods rat rods being as creative as much as possible. Author ✍️ and illustrator of two children’s books also in the process of developing a new product, love inventions and inventing things.

We’d love to hear about any fond memories you have from when you were growing up?
