Joshua Saxton

Huntsville,AL

Summary

Brief summary about Joshua Saxton and what I stand for, I was raised in Birmingham Alabama, not the easiest environment to grow up in. Add in being raised a single mother with two other children, Growing up came with some adversity. But I have never used that as a excuse, or felt bad about it. One thing my mother taught me was the value of hard work, she drove 40 minuets back and forth from tuscaloosa everyday to create a better life for us. And I in turn embodied her hard working spirit, from a very young age, I was in sports my whole life, in high school being a 3 sport athlete and also working a part time job bagging groceries at Publix, all the way up to collage where i the received a partial academic scholarship to Alabama A&M university and also deciding to serve my country and join the U.S Army. I am no stranger to hard work. I fell in love with the car business because i could get out what i put in as apposed to a regular Job where i get paid the same regardless. I also love to help others and build relationships. One of my strengths is knowing how to communicate with people, Understanding concerns, being apathetic to their concerns and working with them to find the correct solutions.
