I would like to help strengthen the industry that has been so great to me by increasing dealer profitability, customer experience, and the amount of rider/participants in the sport(s) we love so much.

I started off as a front-line salesperson 20 years ago with no experience and no clue what I was doing. We had two brands and the time and one location. I have since worked my way up to co-owner/operator and have served at some point in almost every position in the dealership. We now have two locations, 14 brands between both locations, have doubled the square footage of the original location and planning on future expansions.

My leadership style is very much of a servant leader. If I can help my team reach their individual goals, I will without a doubt inevitably reach mine. I have served on a few dealer councils, I have been the Chairman of 20 group, and most recently the Vice President of the North Carolina Motorcycle Dealer Association.

I would like to strengthen dealers through sustainability, education, programs and the power of a unified front to take on legislative topics that could be detrimental to the industry and support those that help us move forward.

My NPDA background is currently as an NPDA member that gleams information, attempts to draw more members, and more participation. I look forward to participating in future educational tracks and events.

I offer a unique perspective to many, perhaps not all, in that I started at the bottom, worked my way up, oversee multiple roof tops and often times have a different way of looking at things. I am very pragmatic and data driven. I rarely operate on feelings and emotions.

I would want to contribute to the Board to paint the vision, build a roadmap for the future of powersports and how we are going to continue to grow sustainably as an industry despite all the noise out in the world.
