I grew up as an Army Brat and had the privilege to have lived all over the globe on six continents and one day; with my three boys I will travel to Antarctica. 

I currently live in the Northern Shenandoah Valley in the City of Winchester Virginia.I consider Washington DC as my childhood Hometown. 

Growing up, my family was involved with the Military, Airline, Hotel, Automotive and Restaurant Industries. I have a long-standing joke that: I worked at nine different restaurants in Washington DC and I will still eat at four of them.  

As a teenager I started a detailing company out of my parents’ garage that quickly grew into an onsite Detailing Reconditioning Services Business catering exclusively to Automotive Dealerships.

I love working in the auto industry and quickly realized; this industry was one of the last bastions left for the self-made professional. It is where I found one of my passions and callings. Through a series of unusual circumstances, I was offered opportunity to work with Toyota Motor Sales to Regionally test and Nationally launch Toyota Certified Used Vehicles. Throughout my 25+ years working with the OEM's I have worked for; JM Family Enterprises (JM&A/SET) A private distributor for Toyota Vehicles in the Southeast of the United States, Nissan Motors USA, Toyota Motor Sales USA and Mazda North American Operations.

Prior to joining NADA in 2018 as an Academy Instructor and recent Academy Graduate, I served as General Manager with the Beyer Automotive Group in Winchester, Virginia; Leading Volvo, Volkswagen, Mazda Franchises.
