I have been a Finance Manager with First Team since June of 2000. My husband, Milton, and I have been married "forever" and have three children, Kimberly, Shauna and Milton Gerrord. I am grandmother to Kendra, N'dea and Shaun Daniel. Born in North Carolina, we currently live in Hampton. My favorite things include music, Lifetime movies, shopping, reading, and spreading the good news! I enjoy working with my church family on various projects and goals. My greatest God-given gift is to be able to offer and arrange financing for people with less than perfect credit, who thought owning a Honda wasn't a possibility. First Team Honda is a dealership where Dreams Do Come True! Attitude is key in our business . . . it will affect your Altitude!
