QA1 recently announced that the Specialty Equipment Marketing Association (SEMA) has named QA1 President Melissa Scoles to SEMA’s 35 Under 35, a list of 35 young and rising stars in the aftermarket industry. “It’s an honor to be included on this list with others who are making a mark in the aftermarket industry,” Scoles says. “Being recognized by SEMA shows that QA1 is on the right track and that we have exciting times ahead.”

This is the second year SEMA has assembled this list that highlights people with a thorough knowledge of the aftermarket industry, and who are moving the industry in new directions. To be considered, the individual must first be nominated, then SEMA evaluates each nominee based on leadership qualities, industry involvement and expertise in their particular market.

Scoles has already left an impressive mark on the aftermarket industry. She has shown a passion for creating the latest in suspension technology with a focus on manufacturing American-made products, and continues to promote innovation and growth for QA1. “Quality, innovation and affordability will matter more and more…” Scoles says in the article, “which puts QA1 in an excellent position for future growth.”

Congratulations to Scoles for being named to SEMA’s 35 Under 35 and being recognized for her dedication and hard work.
