I have been in the auto industry for over 26 years. I believe buying a car should be like life – fun – and that happy employees make happy customers. I enjoy camping with my wife and children, I love animals (we have two rescue donkeys, a horse, and 2 dogs), and I played D-1 Football. I’m also a competitive powerlifter, squatting over 700lbs in competition.
