There was a time when teenage work meant mowing lawns, paper routes, or lifeguarding under the blazing sun. But in The Woodlands today, a quiet shift is taking place: a generation of students are building real businesses—not just side hustles—for real clients.
Among these young entrepreneurs is Evan Turner, founder of Omega Automotive Detailing, a full-service automobile detailing company that comes to you to complete the job onsite. What began as a humble effort to keep his family’s cars clean has grown into a flourishing business serving some of the most detail-oriented vehicle owners in the area.
Turner started Omega at just 13 years old, guided by family support and the gentle mentorship of his grandfather. “I live by the verse 1 Corinthians 16:14: ‘Let all that you do be done with love,’” Turner says. “That applies to everything—detailing cars, working with people, and daily life. When you do things with love, it brightens not only your life but others’ as well.”
That philosophy shows in his craftsmanship. His clients, from owners of high-end SUVs to classic cars, notice the extra care he brings to every wash, polish, and detail—work that rivals seasoned professionals.
But Omega is only part of Turner’s broader ambition. He plans to eventually pursue civil engineering through the University of North Carolina at Charlotte before earning his Project Management Professional (PMP) certification. Turner intends to enter custom homebuilding—a field where passion and precision are just as important.
Turner’s story reflects a larger trend in The Woodlands: young people thinking like brand builders, not babysitters. Whether selling collectible sneakers, managing social media for local boutiques, or running tutoring services, this generation isn’t waiting for adulthood to begin creating.
Thanks to them, a new spirit of enterprise is alive in The Woodlands—and we all get to benefit.
