He has held various roles with the company, starting on the sales floor, lease renewal manager, used car manager and he now leads our new car department, and his hair  has since gone whiter than snow . We are not sure of the link between sales and service and gray hair or no hair, hopefully the scientist will come up with a cure (Chris will take the sales side effect over the service alternative any day). So if you have any questions regarding leasing, your lease renewal or purchasing a new car, he can help. Chris was recently married to rejoices of "iaft".When he has spare time (which is rarely, now that he has a "honey do" list) , he enjoys hockey and golf and is an avid boater. Chris is also happy that mini Vneck NOAH, still has dark hair at his 2nd birthday.
