Bio
Tyler Cline
I would definitely recommend Chris to deal with anyone's customer base. Since I have started working for him in the summer of 2015 I have learned how to to take customer service to a entirely new level. He goes above and beyond to please his customers by using precise decision making and exceptional attention to detail to fulfill their needs. I couldn't ask for someone better than Chris to learn from on how to manage customer accounts. His sales work is second to none here at Ares.
