I grew up in Perry, Ohio, and after high school I joined the US Navy.  Once my service in the Navy was completed I entered civilian life and began selling automobiles.  Twenty five years later I am still in the business and  now have the privilege of serving as the General Manager of this dealership. I  enjoy spending time with my wife and  two sons who are currently  in college at Akron University and Kent State University.  Thankfully, "our girls", the Labradoodles, are at home with us and will need no further education.

Being the son of a Navy Corpsman, I grew up in 5 different cities before settling in Ashtabula as a young teenager.  I have been married for almost three years, and recently bought a home here in Ashtabula.  In my spare time I enjoy attending Cleveland Indians games, playing ping-pong with my father, and spending time with my family.

The automotive industry is my vocation and I have been here for 29 years, having done everything from technician to manager,   but music has always been my passion.  I have been playing musical instruments since the age of four.  I was the guitar player in two professional bands for 19 years, first with Shotgun  then with Slingshot.  I play the guitar, bass guitar, mandolin, fiddle, dobro, and drums.

Along with making music, I enjoy hunting and fishing when time allows.  My wife and I have four children and  grandchildren that are our pride and joy.  Time with the family is the most important aspect of my life.

My love of cars goes way back.  When I was  three my parents sold their truck to pay the hospital bill for my baby sister.  I cried and begged my parents to return my sister and get the truck back!
