Erik Gabor - Sales & Customer Service

Erik's love for everything off road started at an early age. Originally in his family's sand rails at Glamis, and then later graduating to dirt bikes, Erik found himself buying, selling, working on and riding his dirt bikes all over southern California.

This passion for off roading continued to evolve into the Jeep and SxS world. Erik currently daily drives a 2018 Jeep JLU that rides on coil overs and 40s!

In his free time and on weekends Erik can be found wrenching on his own, as well as the off road vehicles, of others in the interest of helping out the off road community. He states, "My love for off roading and the Jeep community is what led me to my desire to work for RockJock, a job that will allow me to use the knowledge I have gained after years of working on off road vehicles."

Max Dollinger - Sales & Customer Service

Max started wrenching on cars, doing general auto repair at service stations at the age of 16. Then, at the age of 22, Max started working at an off road shop. 10 months later, Max jumped head first into owning his own off road shop when he bought the shop he was working at in Louisville, Kentucky!

Over the next 20 years, Max’s off road shop turned out countless custom Jeep builds and forged lasting off road community friendships, so a lot of you may already know him!

Max also trail guides for Jeep Jamboree at a handful of events on the east coast every year. With a JK, a TJ, an XJ, an MJ and a custom all aluminum, LS powered, TJ frame Jeep Scrambler in his fleet, he is no stranger to Jeeps, and, obviously, has a huge passion for four wheeling!

Max sold and installed RockJock accessories for all of the 20 years of owning his own shop, so it was a natural fit to bring him on board as a part of our staff!

Brian Shephard - Sales & Marketing/Data

Brian has been working for the Currie family since 1999, so he has seen the evolution of all of the modern Jeep platforms and has been on the front lines of all of RockJock’s product development from the beginning.

Brian handles all of our marketing and media relations, data distribution and product photography. You’ll likely run into Brian at a show out in the world somewhere as he has been traveling the country, corner to corner, to events for nearly 2 decades.

Brian grew up in a Jeeping family and has owned 2 XJs. Currently his love of vintage hot rods and muscle cars has pushed all of the Jeeps out of the picture, but never say never! Maybe there is another Jeep in his future!

Tiny Stark - Media

If it has an internal combustion engine, Tiny probably loves it! Rebuilding his first engine (a 383 max wedge motor) when he was 12, Tiny has always loved anything and everything automotive related. Having owned and operated his own custom shop for over 28 years, he has had the opportunity to work on just about everything from crazy Jeep builds to lowriders and everything in between.

Tiny's other passion is photography. As a PADI certified open water diver and FAA certificated private pilot, he has plenty of opportunity to capture imagery from his travels! It was inevitable then that Tiny's love of cars and his love of photography would eventually collide. That occurrence led to Tiny establishing and bringing to print not one, but two different automotive magazine titles. Shortly thereafter he established a weekly podcast companion that he hosted and produced, to accompany the magazines as they went to print.

Tiny's talents lend themselves well to operating as the Media Director for RockJock 4x4 & JCPG as he produces original digital content, and has established & maintains all of our social media channels as well.
