Our Team

Chelsea Stebner

Managing Partner

Chelsea is married to Mark, and they have 2 daughters, Kate and Allison along with 2 much beloved labradors, Bella and Hazel.  She is a morning coffee drinker, along with enjoying both sunrises and sets, she loves summer and beaches and forests and dogs!  Chelsea says she’s talentless, unless you count having to learn over and over each summer how to drive a quad– so does that mean her talent is forgetfulness?  Books are her jam and she has many favorites…. Who has seen the Wind? Shantaram, Anne of Green Gables Series and Love Anthony are just a few of them.

Brayden Neufeld

Co-Owner & Collision Repair Technician

Brayden.  Useless or not so useless talent is catching grapes in his mouth from long distances.  His favorite food is old turkey that he’s left in the fridge too long or ice cream cake.  Ummm….  Ice cream cake it is! Brayden is married to his child sweetheart Nikki and they have 3 boys: Henry, Charlie and Lucas.  Brayden doesn’t have time for books or movies – he’s a fulltime coach and sports Dad….hockey and baseball crazy.  We think that he likes sunrises and sets because of his long days hitting the gym, hockey rinks and ball fields.  His favorite animal is Bella the Best.  If she goes missing, we know she’s with Brayden.

David Sather

Co-Owner & Collision Repair Technician

David….says his useless talent is procrastination haha….seeing he’s the second last person to answer this little quiz we’d say he’d hit the nail on the head.  David is surrounded by women in his life, Kelly, his lovely wife and Natalie, Lexi, Kylie and Hayli, his daughters.  He’s a coffee and sweet person, loves all the seasons and all the sunshine and although his dog Chip is the only other male in his house, he’d choose cats!

He’s luckily married to Shannon and they have 2 daughters, Alyssa and Kelsey.  Jamie’s favorite food is smoked ribs, he loves coffee, sunrises and sets, summer and doesn’t care about dogs or cats!  His useless talent is hitting a golf ball very far away from its intended target. Jamie likes camping and running long distances.  And his favorite movies?  He loves Back to the Future and Ghostbusters!!!!

Emily van Leeuwen

Customer Care Professional

Emily is a coffee crazed gal who says she’d take an IV drip of it if she could.  No surprise that her favorite food is Affogato which for those of you who don’t know is vanilla ice cream topped with espresso!  Em is also a kick butt baker, loves sunshine and sunsets and cats. Em’s family is her hubby Matt and cats, Otis and Pip! In Em’s spare time she volunteers at a Cat Rescue, gets snuggles from her nephew and niece, skateboards and collects tattoos as living artwork.

Brandon Finke

Brandon’s ‘useless’ talent is flipping upside down– PARKOUR!!!!  And it goes without saying that we’d have guessed his favorite movie is Star Wars.  Brandon’s family is made up of his very adventurous mom and dad, his sister Alex and his girlfriend Ashley.  His is a Matcha Tea drinker, likes sweet instead of savory, is an avid bird watcher and thinks cats are superior to dogs!

Bella the Best

Chief Morale Officer

Bella is our Chief Morale Officer at Parr Auto Body.  Bella’s very useful talent is beggin’ for treats.  Her family is made up of 2 teenage girls, her labrador sister Hazel, and her human parents.  She really loves all animals, especially squirrels and bunnies at the lake.  She could care less about TV or books but a good bone to chew on is awesome.  Bella loves to come to work and brings a smile to most everyone’s face that she meets up with.

The coolest British accent around!  This is Sean.  He moved to Saskatoon from the UK in JANUARY of 2023 with his lovely wife Melissa and 2 daughters, Maddie and Sophia.  No surprise, this guy chooses winter over summer, dogs over cats, sunrises and tea is his favorite! Sean’s best useless (?) talent is his sarcasm haha and Top Gun is his top movie choice!

Tony An

Estimator

Toe Knee.  This fella is a gem.  With his background in mechanical knowledge, he is quickly becoming an asset as an estimator at Parr.  Tony’s talent is quoting from things from movies and TV shows and his favorite movie is The Dark Knight. Tony loves potatoes because of the diversity of preparing them.  He is surrounded by women in his family (lucky guy) with his mom and three sisters.  He loves any caffeinated beverage and has a serious sweet tooth (again lucky him as we live on goodies around here), he’s a night owl so prefers sunsets, and he detests the cold which makes him a summer lover.  Tony’s allergic to cats and we see Bella the dog cuddling up to him every chance he gets!

Shane Hersack

Refinish Technician

Also known as New Shane, Shane Hersack joined our team in winter 2024.  Useless talent of his? Wiggling his ears….now how in the world did he figure that out?  Shane’s favorite food is Thanksgiving dinner because it’s delicious and reminds him of home.  Love that!  Shane’s favorites are coffee, sunrises, summer, dogs and Back to the Future!

Remi Berthelet

Detailer

Parr’s history circles back around.  Remi’s Dad was a detailer here back in the 80’s when he was going to the U of S.  Now Remi has joined us until he makes it famous as a rock star!  Seriously though this young man steps it up.  We are thrilled to have him as part of our team.  We know his real talent is being a musician but we sure would like to keep him around as long as we can!
