I graduated from the University of Kentucky in 1990 with a degree in accounting. I am married to Jackie Strong and we have two children, Max and Mady. I immediately went to work in public accounting and became a CPA. I Left public accounting to go into the automobile industry which led to becoming a Chief Financial Officer at various new vehicle dealerships. I have spent the last 22 years serving at the highest levels of management in two of Kentucky's largest Ford dealerships serving in capacity as CFO, General Sales Manager as well as General Manager. Now serving as the GM and Managing Partner of Strong Auto. I bring great experience and a desire to make sure you will be treated fairly in dealing with our new company.
