    I started in the car business in 1977 working for Ralph Schomp Imports. I joined Centennial Leasing & Sales in 1987 when our current business model was launched. We wanted to help outstanding sales consultants to have careers by being in business for themselves; while providing all of the tools for their clients to have "their BEST automotive buying experience." 

    I am a 5th Generation Coloradoan born in Denver, CO and happily married to my wife Denise. When I am not in the office I enjoy traveling, dining and enjoying all that Denver & Colorado has to offer.
