Meet Our Staff

My name is Ryan Tincher and I joined the Germain team here at Jaguar Land Rover of Easton as a Parts Advisor in January 2019. I feel that my background working on a production line in a bottling plant will help me succeed in my new adventure in the auto industry. My goal is to always maintain a caring and professional attitude, treat everyone with respect and provide our guests with a quality experience. I’m from the Columbus area GO BUCKS! In my high school days, I was a Cruiser, graduating from Groveport Madison High School. My wife Madison and I have three children Sophie, Sutton and Stella. Having three children keeps us active however I do find time to enjoy playing softball or watching sports. The Range Rover Sport all black is my favorite model. It’s the perfect ride for my family.

Hello, I’m Brian Noeth. I joined the Germain team in January 2019 as a Certified Technician for Jaguar Land Rover of Easton, bringing with me an automotive career that began in 1998. My entire automotive career has focused on the luxury brands. I believe to achieve superior customer satisfaction I need to put myself in our guests place and treat them and their vehicle the way I would want to be treated. Originally from Columbus, I enjoy that small town atmosphere with the big city opportunities. I graduated from Brookhaven HS and attended classes at Columbus State. My wife Stacee and I have 3 children, Brandon, Nicholas, and Katelyn. In my free time I enjoy classic and contemporary cars. I’m your typical car guy, can’t get enough. My favorite vacation spot must be Punta Cana, Dominican Republic. This is where Stacee and I got married. It’s not well known but I enjoy playing chess and I’m pretty good at it. The Jaguar XJ is my favorite model and I look forward to taking care of you and your favorite.

Hi, my name is Tommy Malone. I’m a Service Technician for Jaguar Land Rover of Easton. My automotive career began in 2014 and has centered around luxury brands. I believe in providing our guests with the best service and want them to know they are my top priority. The level of service I provide will be the best of my abilities and I will service each vehicle as if it were my mother’s. I’m from the Columbus area and I love the country and farms. Graduating from Gahanna Lincoln HS I furthered my education at Columbus State Community College in the automotive program. Away from the dealership, I enjoy hunting, fishing, dogs, cars, and motorcycles. I also like to spend time with my girlfriend Amber. Being a music fanatic allows me to enjoy all genres with no favorite. My first and best vacation was spent at Myrtle Beach, awe of the memories I have of this great vacation. My career may have landed me in this business; however, I have always had the desire to become a Police Officer. Having always loved sports cars and the sound of them, the Jaguar F-Type SVR is my favorite. I look forward to providing you with a quality Germain experience.

Joining the Land Rover team as a service technician in December 2020, I am Brian Stropki. I am excited to put my training to work and focus on getting you and your vehicle safely back on the road. I am from the central Ohio area and graduated from Village Academy. Away from work I enjoy flying, model building, and spending time with my wife Jennifer, and daughter Brynn. Vacations have me headed towards a beach to relax and soak up the sunshine. I also might be caught listening to music, my favorite being anything by Slipknot. I am honored to provide you with your service needs.

Hi, I am Kristen Smith service technician for Land Rover of Easton. My career in the auto industry began in January 2021 and I joined the Germain team in April 2021. I believe in providing a quality and efficient service experience. Born in Atlanta, GA I was raised in Columbus, OH. Childhood memories and friends are things I love the most. I am a graduate of Columbus Alternative High School, Wright State with a BFA in Acting and Columbus State Auto Tech. Away from work, I enjoy Legos, crafts, watching movies, going to car meets / cruise-ins, and hanging with my boyfriend. If I were a fictional character, I would be Annabeth Chase from the Percy Jackson books, she was my inspiration growing up. She is smart, badass, and just all-around awesome. For vacations, I always enjoy finding someplace new to explore. From big cities to national parks. Some fun facts about me, I can sneeze on command and am a lifetime girl scout recipient.

My name is Matt Smith, I’m a service technician here at Jaguar Land Rover of Easton. Joining the Germain team in March 2019 I have training in auto service as well as auto parts. Having proudly served our country in the Army has allowed me to develop my attention to detail and discipline. When providing service to our guests I treat them and their vehicles the way I wish to be treated. Being from the Mt. Vernon area I like the fact that there isn’t any “light pollution”. I received my training in the Collision Repair program at the Knox County Career Center. Relocating to the Columbus area for work I’m excited to be part of the Germain team. In my free time you might find me hiking with my dog, listening to music, or going to Clipper’s games. My goal is to keep you and your vehicle safely on the road.

My name is Steve Vance service technician for Land Rover of Easton. I started with Jaguar in 1999 as my first dealership position and joined the Germain team in 2020. I believe our customers are looking for the uniqueness and luxury of the JLR brand. I enjoy working with them and being a problem solver. Born in Kansas, I was raised in the Chicago suburbs. I’ve had the opportunity to live in multiple beautiful states. I really enjoyed the outdoor experiences both Washington and Colorado offered. I graduated from Universal Technical Institute and Jaguar Pace School. In 2011 I relocated to Ohio to take care of my family. When I’m not at work I enjoy home improvements, woodworking, backpacking, camping, biking, kayaking, anything outdoors, getting involved in some sort of project, and spending time with my partner Rachel and her son Noah. The Range Rover is my favorite of the Land Rover line for family or off-road activities.
