Meet the Team

At Offroad Elements, we take pride in being a family-owned and operated business within the expansive aftermarket automotive industry. What began as a personal hobby in 2011 has since grown into a thriving company—one that embodies the spirit of the American Dream. Today, we’re honored to be recognized as a trusted and well-known name in the off-road community.

Eric M.: President & Founder

Eric is the driving force behind Offroad Elements, truly a jack-of-all-trades within the company. Leaving behind a career in architectural engineering to pursue his passion for off-roading was a bold move—one that helped shape the direction and success of the business. With extensive mechanical expertise and years of off-road experience, Eric offers invaluable insight, recommendations, and guidance to customers looking to take their builds to the next level.

Often the first friendly face you’ll see when walking through our doors, Eric is equally at home in the shop, wrench in hand, working on a Jeep build. When he's not assisting customers or managing operations behind the scenes, he’s developing innovative parts and concepts for Jeep Wranglers—or putting his own rigs to the test on some of the toughest trails New England has to offer.

Gillian plays an essential role in the day-to-day operations and continued growth of Offroad Elements. After transitioning from a career in early childhood education, she dove headfirst into the off-road industry and has been instrumental in shaping the company’s success ever since.

Gillian oversees customer service, sales, social media, marketing, shipping and receiving, web development, inventory management, and more. She is also the creative mind behind many of the events and programs Offroad Elements organizes and hosts throughout the year. Her dedication and versatility help keep the business running smoothly and efficiently.

When she’s not managing the operations behind the scenes, you’ll often find Gillian hitting the trails and tackling the terrain of New England right alongside the off-road community she supports.

What began as a chance meeting on the trails quickly grew into a lifelong friendship—and today, Scottie is considered a true part of the Offroad Elements family. Before officially joining the team, he generously dedicated his evenings and weekends to helping with installations and special projects, all while maintaining a full-time job. When the opportunity arose to turn his passion into a career, Scottie made the leap without hesitation.

Since 2018, Scottie has served as our Lead Technician. With a deep well of mechanical expertise and an eye for detail, he’s the mastermind behind a wide range of installations and custom fabrications. From suspension upgrades and customized installations to fine-tuning and the precision work of regearing, Scottie ensures every build is done to the highest standard.

When he’s not transforming customer vehicles into trail-ready machines, Scottie enjoys playing guitar and tackling some of New England’s most challenging trails with his Offroad Elements crew.
