In 2008, I realized that I needed to make a career change. I spent the previous 19 years in the restaurant industry, and the long hours were really beginning to take their toll. After applying for a job at Don Ayres, I was immediately impressed with the company’s family-friendly approach to business. Everyone welcomed me to the dealership, something that I pass along to our new employees. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my wife, Melissa, and our Weimaraner, Remington Steele (Remy). We also enjoy boating in our vintage Correct Craft. I enjoy helping customers not only at time of purchase, but later on down the line when questions arise on how to use their new vehicle's technology (I'm a bit of a tech geek)!

John was also very professional and helpful with the financial and “business” closing. There are many features in this car that are new to me, but his teaching was not only ample, but he has provided a tutorial link for name to review at home at my own pace. The car rides smoothly and quietly, and I look forward to future driving in it. Thank you Don Ayres Honda. More
