What Do You Enjoy Most About Working at KAR?
I feel very fortunate every day I come to work at KAR. I am surrounded by bright people that share my passion for investing and a focus on finding high-quality businesses.
What Are You Involved in Outside of Work?
When I am not poring over annual reports, I am busy at home with my two young children. Every day as a parent is a brand new learning experience and it is extremely rewarding, especially the big hug my kids give me each night when I come home from work.
