More details about your skills

I started as an Auto Mechanic , and still enjoy working on vehicles and anything else that needs maintenance or fixing. For the last 30 years I've been managing service departments for Honda / Acura dealerships. I've been responsible for hiring, training, encouraging, disciplining up to 35 men and women that work in a Service department. My goal was to make sure that not only our customers were served well, but also my Employees, the Owner, Parts, Sales, Office, and American Honda were pleased with the performance of the shop. I still enjoy getting under the hood at times.
