Meet Our Team
Matt Parks
Owner
Matt is the brains, muscle & smile behind MVP Truck Repair. He grew up with a passion for trucks and taking things apart. This tinkering ultimately drove Matt to attend North Central Kansas Technical College graduating with a degree in diesel mechanics.
During the day, Matt works as a Journeyman Fleet Mechanic for Evergy in Topeka. In the evenings and on the weekends you can find Matt working with MVP Truck Repair customers repairing anything from light to heavy duty trucks and equipment.
Prior to joining Evergy, Matt worked for Martin Tractor Co., WT Repair and O'Reilly's Autoparts where he gained unique experience working on a wide variety of vehicles and machines. During his time with O'Reilly's he brought a unique skillset to his clients since he had the knowledge and background to not only sell parts but help customers determine what they needed. Today, he offers that same service to some customers who want to work on their own machines.
​
When he's not turning wrenches you can find Matt having tea parties with his two princesses, Audra & Ryann Parks, and spending time with his wife, Brie. He's active in his community serving as a Big Brother through Big Brothers, Big Sisters of Northeast Kansas. He's a graduate of the Leadership Greater Topeka, BEST CLASS INFINITY, class of 2016.
​
When Matt does make time for himself, he enjoys tinkering with his Kenworth, playing xbox, participating in the Gambler 500 Roadrace and spending time with friends and family.
