- A little bit about me:I grew up in San Diego. My family owned a Mexican Food Restaurant called Lucita's; it was amazing. My mom was a Travel Agent. In High School, I swam on the Swim Team and played Water Polo (I also had "Surf P.E." for first period; Torrey Pines High School was pretty "Socal" ;). I moved to Arizona in 2003 to attend Arizona State University.When I graduated, as is often the case in my industry, I "stumbled into the car business." But I didn't sell cars at just any car dealership; I sold cars at Avondale Toyota. Avondale Toyota was founded on a single basic principle: Never lie, cheat, or steal. When Avondale Toyota opened in 2003, they had one simple goal: to change the car business. Fast forward a few years and here we are. We opened our second Toyota dealership (One Toyota) in February 2010 and as a result of both stores' success, our unique way of doing business, and our belief in complete transparency, we have earned a tremendous amount of respect along the way.Personally, I have an amazing wife, Monique, who is truly my better half. I have two perfect daughters, Marlowe and Scarlett and a son, Max. And finally, a golden retriever named Roscoe; he's the man.
