With skills encompass sales management, pre-owned acquisitions, sales, fixed operations, F&I, subprime finance, dealership accounts, clerical tasks (such as handling titles), and vehicle detailing. I am adaptable and capable of filling any position within a dealership, as well as training others to excel in their roles.
