My name is Ryan Joseph Marrow, and I am the founder of Santa Cruz Mobile Detailing, a small but passionate business born from a simple love for clean, well-cared-for vehicles. What started as a personal pursuit quickly grew into something bigger: a mission to serve the people of Santa Cruz County with the kind of care and attention that turns cars, trucks, and boats into shining reflections of their owners’ pride. From the very beginning, I wanted this to be more than just a detailing service — I wanted it to feel like a neighbor helping neighbors, an extension of the beauty and spirit of our community.
I’ve been fortunate to build this dream alongside two incredible teammates, Gwen and Colin. Together, the three of us have shared not just the work, but the adventure of traveling across Santa Cruz County and nearby areas, meeting people from all walks of life. Each day is different — one morning we might be restoring the shine to a family SUV parked in a driveway overlooking the Pacific, and by the afternoon we could be carefully detailing a boat anchored in the harbor. Every job is a new story, every customer a new connection, and every challenge an opportunity to grow together as a team.
What unites us is a shared passion for excellence. We don’t just clean vehicles; we take pride in the transformation, in bringing back the sparkle that makes someone smile when they see their car or boat gleaming again. Our focus has always been on quality, reliability, and care — values that mirror the spirit of Santa Cruz itself. Through long days under the sun, laughter shared while rinsing down a boat deck, and quiet moments of satisfaction when we see our work completed, Gwen, Colin, and I have found purpose not just in detailing, but in building something meaningful. Santa Cruz Mobile Detailing is our way of giving back to the community we love, one shining vehicle at a time.
