From Cathy Allred’s article on the Daily Herald website:

When petite Breana Tolman isn’t dressing up and putting on makeup with her sister, Samantha, she likes getting elbows deep in oil and dirt.

Because of her passion for cars, she was referred by a friend to Vince Lung at Lung Automotive in Lehi.

“He said she was working at doing lubes and oil changes but that she actually wanted to work on cars, mechanically, and fix things, and no one had ever given her a chance because she is a girl,” Vince Lung said.

Vince and Ella Lung took a chance on her.
