Bio

Well once i got out of the army i started selling cars. But i don't look at myself as a "salesman" I look at myself more of someone that helps others in a buying decision. I have helped close to 200 people get a new car and I have a near perfect customer satisfaction score. My over all goal is to be debt free and live life with little to no financial worry's. Once I left the army I started selling cars. I tried that for two years with little luck. I know have my CDL Class A drivers license and I driver truck
