As the single parent of my daughter for the last decade, Leader of Sales Teams of 150+, an Executive Level Director in the Indirect Auto Lending arena for Subprime/Prime Banks for 24 years. I am fortunate to have learned so much- Developing Scorecards for the #1 Used Car Lender in America and #2 Subprime Lender in America, Oversight of 50k+customers in the most profitable $750mm portfolio East of the CO Rockies, etc. I enjoy assisting and consulting customers in developing plans to improve their credit, reduce potential risks, and improve their future- regardless of their current situation. I Love the advice I was given as a new leader in my 20's: "Quit Worrying about yesterday CT- You cannot change it! Look Back to Learn and Look Forward to Succeed = Make a plan- Execute it; Lead by Example and make huge goals for yourself." I am grateful for past opportunities where I've helped people better their situations and I look forward to more today. CT

I had an excellent experience at Southern Hyundai Chesapeake. I was immediately greeted by Charles (“Chuck”) Goodman, who took the time to ask me the right questions to find my perfect vehicle. After Chesapeake. I was immediately greeted by Charles (“Chuck”) Goodman, who took the time to ask me the right questions to find my perfect vehicle. After driving my previous car for 12 years, there were a lot of new features to become acquainted with and Chuck patiently walked me through the finer details. Chuck was easy to communicate with, and he made sure I was 100% confident and satisfied with my vehicle-buying decision. The whole team at Southern Hyundai (Chris Thompson and Steve Johnson to name a few others!) were excellent and knowledgeable , and they worked together efficiently to make my purchase a pleasant experience. Thank you all! More
