President

I’ve been a mason’s apprentice, high school teacher and even held a corporate position Toyota Motors Sales USA. I joined my family’s business in 2004 and feel honoured to be a part of the lives of the families I work with every day and the clients I serve. My favorite part of my career is making the purchase or servicing of someone’s vehicle easy and more enjoyable. I live in Hamilton with my wife and son who love joining me at TiCats games or for Artcrawl. I occasionally find the time to play some basketball, although this is getting more difficult as I am active in the community through personal outreach and the corporate work we do. I believe in supporting the community which supports us. Thank you Hamilton.I’ve been a mason’s apprentice, high school teacher and even held a corporate position Toyota Motors Sales USA.

I have been with Parkway Nissan of Stoney Creek since the day we opened in May 2010. I love coming to work every day. I am fortunate to work with a team and I am proud to be able to assist clients in making that tough car buying decision. I grew up in Brampton and moved to Hamilton to attend McMaster University - and have never left the city. My three children were born and raised in here and we are excited to be involved with much of what the city has to offer.

I'm a proud Hamiltonian born and raised and have lived in every corner of this city. I have 2 amazing sons that are my motivation and my pride. When they talk about the Philadelphia Eagles I know I'm doing a pretty good job with them! After several years of owning and operating my own sign company I decided it was time for a change. My favorite aspect of my business was interacting with all my clients. That with my love of cars and trucks made being a sales & leasing consultant a great fit for me. Almost a decade later, I still get as excited as my clients are when they pick up their new vehicle. I believe in putting the pressure on myself to meet my clients needs and wants instead of on them to buy a car. At Parkway Nissan their atmosphere and great team support, help me accomplish this goal with so many clients. I'm so happy and great full to call Parkway Nissan my place of employment and I look forward to showing you why!!I'm a proud Hamiltonian born and raised and have lived in every corner of this city.

I grew up in the Ancaster area and have been a car fanatic for as long as I can remember. One of my best childhood memories was when my dad would let me sit on his lap and steer the wheel every Sunday on our way home from church. I spent many years in the restaurant business, but I would always have a car at home to fill my spare time. When I had the opportunity to get into car sales, I jumped at it. For me, there is no better way to spend my day than driving and talking about cars with anyone willing to listen. Everyday, I am thankful for the opportunity Parkway Nissan of Stoney Creek gives me to do this for a living.

Assistant Parts Manager

I began my career in the automotive industry in 1994 as an oil change technician. I received my automotive license in 2004, and decided to steer myself towards automotive parts specifically. This has proven to be both rewarding and challenging. I enjoy helping customers and technicians find the right parts they need for whatever job they're performing. When I'm not at work, I enjoy spending quality time with my wife and two daughters; swimming or watching a great movie. I also spend my time watching all types of sports, or playing baseball and tennis with my friends.I began my career in the automotive industry in 1994 as an oil change technician.

Capture Specialist

I joined Parkway Motors Hamilton in June 2021 as the organization's Capture Specialist and I get to do the one thing I like best; taking photos with my camera! I take photos of just about everything you see on the website and always look for unique ways to photograph our vehicles, events and staff. Working with a family owned dealership is important to me because I see my own values reflected in the workplace and opportunity for growth and professional development truly exists here! The first vehicle I drove was 1990 Nissan Pathfinder and my father is currently restoring two 1970's Datsun 280Z!
