I have been blessed to have a wonderful family that has supported my passion for the Car/People business.

I have been in the car business since 2011. Prior to that, I was in the investment banking industry. I was born and raised in Germantown and have 2 sons.

My hobbies are investments, golf, and riding the trails on my mountain bike. The thing I like most about Subaru is working for the Keras family and the safety/reliability that the brand is known for.

I was raised around the drag strip; which has made vehicles in general one of the biggest passions in my life. I grew up going to Millington International Speedway when the NHRA was still coming to Memphis. This has lead me on many different adventures in the racing scene, but the biggest was the opportunity to work at Jim Keras Subaru.

I have been with Jim Keras Automotive since 2014. I have a great opportunity to be in the car business due to the dedicated team we have here plus the customers we have.

I am a committed family advocate and loyal friend, displaying honesty, enthusiasm, and balance with those I meet. I am a proud owner of multiple Subarus over the years. I am actively passing on my training to share and discover more about the enjoyment of past, current, and future models. I am eager to guide all to become fellow Subaru family members. I come from a decades long career in the technical food and beverage management industry, paralleled with a lifelong love of all aspects of automobiles.

Meet Billy, our newly promoted Treat Manager at Sunset Hills Subaru!

Stop by and say hi—he’s always open to "barking" about his new role!

Buddy came into our life in October 2019 after we hosted a pet adoption event in the showroom. We think he is a Beagle mix of some sort, but we really do not know. All we know is we love him. And, the day we adopted him was the best day we ever had at Sunset Hills Subaru! :)) He loves it when customers waiting for service want to take him for a walk. :) Buddy always has a pawsitive attitude about his job, even after a long, ruff day of sharing his love with everyone he encounters. He doesn't bite, but he does have a huge appetite, and he isn't afraid to ask you for a taste of whatever you're munching on! Oh, his favorite car is the Outback waggin.
