Entrepreneur | Auto Repair Expert | Lifelong Learner

Hi, I’m Neil Bilodeau—entrepreneur, family man, and lifelong learner. I own SAF-T Auto Centers, a second-generation auto repair shop in Wallingford, CT, where my team of skilled technicians provides honest, high-quality service. With decades of experience managing the business, I focus on blending traditional values with modern technology to create an exceptional customer experience.

While I don’t work directly on vehicles, I’m deeply involved in overseeing operations and continuously improving processes to keep SAF-T Auto running smoothly. I’m currently exploring how AI and advanced systems can enhance efficiency and customer satisfaction.

Outside of work, I’m a devoted husband and proud father of three daughters. My wife, Angelique, and I have been married since 1998, and our family life keeps me grounded and motivated. I’m also an espresso enthusiast, a novice sailor learning the ropes on my 1976 Pearson 35 sailboat, and a tech gadget lover.

I approach every interest with a desire to fully understand it—whether it’s dieting and fitness to achieve personal goals, maintaining my sailboat, or experimenting with coffee brewing techniques. I love learning, improving, and mastering whatever I’m focused on at the moment.

Whether you’re here to talk business, hobbies, or ideas, feel free to connect—I’d love to hear from you!
