With over 20yrs of automotive sales experience, I value excellent customer service above all else. Love to help people with finance needs and credit hiccups. Started in 99' at a VW/Nissan dealer and 20yrs later, I find myself back with VW! Huge Animal lover and have 3 wonderful pets Lucille, Stephie, and Kitty. I learned excellent customer service and incredible attention to detail from ABT Appliance & Electronics back as a teenager. Please stop in and say hi!
