Salma
*
*
When Salma was twenty, she and her best friend drove across the country. They broke down somewhere in the hot and dusty middle. They waited nine hours for a tow truck, and then a day and a half for a mechanic to look under the hood. And once he did, their road trip fund was wiped out. She never wanted to be stranded like that again. When they got where they were going and she’d saved enough money, Salma took a basic car care and repair class. When it was over, she decided to keep learning. She is now a master mechanic and owner of her own shop, Salma & Sons. There are no sons, she just likes the sound of it. She specializes in hybrids and runs her own car care classes for women on weekends.
