SAGINAW, MI — John Cooper considers himself a self-made “jack of all trades.”
The auto collision specialist owns a body shop on Washington Avenue in Saginaw, but he also designs T-shirts, cuts hair, does upholstery, video production and more.
Cooper, who studied auto body repair at what is now the Saginaw Career Complex, said his diverse skill set is the result of “taking a leap of faith and just trying things.” Now, he’s working to share his knowledge with teenagers and encourage entrepreneurship through his Jack of All Trades Prep Academy.
