Hi there everyone! A little bit about me outside of the work place is I’m a thrill chaser! I’m going to plan that trip! I’m going try that new food! I’m going to cut 10 inches off my hair! I’m going to run in the ice cold water at the beach! So if you’re looking for someone who will bring the thrill back into car buying, allow me! I’m someone who you’ll forget I’m the salesperson, I’m your new friend who’s excited for you! Looking forward to it!
