I am an Auto Credit Manager for Donnelly's Ford, Kia and Mitsubishi dealerships. I started with the Donnelly Group in August 2014 and what drove me to join the Donnelly team was the loyalty they uphold with customers. I have worked at many dealerships that don't look out for the customers' best interests - the Donnelly Group does. I carry six years of experience in the auto industry. Before joining the Donnelly Group I was the premiere salesperson for two years with my former employer. I graduated top of my class from LAU (Lebanese American University) in Lebanon with a degree of business management. In my spare time you can find me on the water with his family. I love sailing, fishing, riding my Seadoo and other water-based activities.
Fresh out of school in 1991, I joined Donnelly's selling cars, not expecting the job to last too long. What a surprise when within 4 weeks I realized this was the job for me! I loved the fast paced environment of the showroom, meeting new people every day, and the fact that no two days were the same. Over the years I've held many management positions, but I realized that I prefer to work closely with customers one on one, so I started our Donnelly Auto Credit department. I wanted to specialize in car loan credit counseling, to help good people who have had some unfortunate credit problems, get their life back on track. It may take a little more work securing a car loan for these customers, but I really enjoy the complexity involved in getting them driving the right vehicle. Nothing gives me a better feeling than watching one of my customers drive away with a big smile on their face!
Originally from Montreal my family moved to Ottawa when I was very young. At 18 years old I started in the automotive industry and did many different jobs including apprentice mechanic, service advisor, salesperson and sales manager. My approach with customers has always been calm and laid back. I joined the Donnelly Group in 2010 when I heard about the Donnelly Auto Credit program. The opportunity to work with customers who never thought they could get a car loan represented a challenge that I thought my years of experience could solve. Being a Credit Manager is a perfect fit for me, and the best part of my job is hearing my customers say I’ve made a positive change in their life. Getting them approved can sometimes be against the odds, but seeing them drive away with their needs met is all the reward I need, day in and day out. When I’m not in the office you can find me spending time with my family or enjoying the outdoors.
