Summary

I have been in this industry since I was a small child. My father was a GM since I was 7 years old. I have been around this business my whole life, and I love every minute of it.

This is my professional sport. I have traveled to other stores for the last five years, pretty much fixing and growing the departments.

I have all the references from each store who will verify everything I have said in my resume.

I love what I do, and I am still very passionate about winning. I have a winner's attitude every day, and I can put a culture together that drives people to success.

I enjoy watching people win and make a lot of money. I enjoy changing lives.

I'm seasoned with a lot of experience in both the variable and fixed operations side. I have developed into an operator.

There is still so much I have to learn, and want to learn. This business is always changing and we must keep up with the times
