    • Ford//Mercury/Medium-Heavy Duty Truck Dealership Owner / Operator
      • Jun 1985 - Dec 2003

      I started in the automotive business as a kid working for my Fathers Ford franchise. I swiftly learned all elements of the business by working in every division for a period of time over 10 years. My path ranging from Car wash to Body Shop to Sales, inevitably to land in the Parts and Service division as my preference. After my Fathers passing in in the early 90's, my brother and I, with a partner but as the majority owners, maintained and successfully steered the Auto and Truck franchise through years of multi-million dollar sales and growth. My brother and I sold the dealership in the late 90's and we stepped in different directions in our career path. With mine leading me into corporate sales with Grainger, Trane, and currently Electrolux/Frigidaire. Show less
