My family started in the car business over 70 years ago in Concord, NH. I got started in the industry right after college. The first car I sold was a 1978 used Volare "Woody" Wagon.

Rob has been an essential part of the Hampton Ford Hyundai family since 1999. His laid back, considerate personality is the core of his zealous customer following. In 2016, Rob was promoted to General Sales Manager of the dealership.

David has been in the automotive industry since 1995 and has experience in all aspects of the parts and service department. David enjoys time with his children and traveling all over the world. In his spare time, he usually can be found golfing, which is not very often with 2 young kids at home. 

Karla recently joined our family early May of 2019. She has always been a fan of driving and cars in general and wanted to make the car buying experience enjoyable, fast and fun for others, including first-time buyers. When not at the dealership helping new customers, she enjoys cruising along coastal Rt 1 or spending time actually on the beach (not just looking at it from her vehicle). Here's a cool little fact about Karla: she flew a Cessna once out of Skyhaven Airport in Rochester; she got to take off, do banked turns over the ocean off of York, Maine, and land the plane! And her favorite vehicle is a Mustang... we think she's in the right place for that!

Tina joined the Hampton Ford Hyundai family as a Product Specialist in February 2018. A little while later she moved into our Internet Sales role, acting as the first impression of the dealership for many new customers coming to our websites. Unlike most people. Tina loves the car shopping experience and decided she wanted to be there for people ready to take the next steps in the car buying journey. When Tina isn't at the dealership, you may find her binge-watching Supernatural or Grey's Anatomy, that is if she's not chasing after her cute as a button puppy (who may have a side-gig as a personal assistant to the Devil). Tina is fluent in Greek and would love to challenge anyone to try to pronounce her Maiden name (Tzortzakis).

When not working, Sue enjoys time with her girls, attempting to pass on her automotive knowledge and passion.
