Jesy Pape

Jesy Pape

Founder + Owner

My passion for cars started young, and by high school I was always under the hood working on vehicles. After earning my Automotive Technician Degree from Lane Community College, I worked at several dealerships, gaining valuable experience but feeling unsatisfied. I wanted to create something different—an automotive business built on transparency, quality repairs, and true community connection. In 2009, that drive became reality when I opened Pape Automotive. Since then, my focus has been on leading with pride and commitment, providing professional service, and continuously improving to give our customers the best care possible.

Over the years, my role has naturally evolved into marketing, fueled by a genuine passion for our community, our customers, and our family. I’m dedicated to sharing our story, building strong connections, and making sure our values of pride, transparency, and commitment shine through in everything we do.

I enjoy being in this field because it allows me to help people. Our vehicles are a big lifeline for us and when they let us down it can be very stressful. I like being able to help ease that frustration and get a client back on the road, eliminating as much hassle and stress along the way.”
