Personal I nformation:
I have over 20 years experience in the automobile business with a “clean” drivers license
and impeccable references available.
I am not afraid to roll up my sleeve and rally the t roops, I have always led by example and
s trive to exceed expectations. I am a diplomatic person by nature and seldom make hasty
decisions, I feel that I am at the prime point in my life for a solid company to recognize and
a fford me the opportunity to showcase my talents.
I would welcome an invitation to view a new opportunity.
With great success,
John Minshew
