Chanin isn't your average car salesperson. Her journey at Acadiana Dodge Chrysler Jeep Ram began in 1991, not on the showroom floor, but in the heart of customer relations. Building trust and understanding your needs was where she cut her teeth, and it's a philosophy she carries with her to this day. After mastering the art of customer care, Chanin left for a few years and in 2016 she returned to sales, leveraging her genuine empathy and sharp understanding of your perspective. This wasn't just a career move; it was a passion project. Helping you find the perfect vehicle to match your lifestyle and dreams is what drives her. But Chanin's story takes a surprising turn when you step outside the dealership. When she's not championing your car-buying journey, you might find her gliding across the water on her kayak, enjoying the tranquility of nature. And here's where the real shocker comes in – Chanin's not just an outdoor enthusiast, she's a skilled farrier! Caring for horses with a natural talent and dedication is a side hustle that speaks volumes about her nurturing and meticulous nature. So, when you meet Chanin, you're not just encountering a salesperson; you're meeting someone who understands your needs, builds trust effortlessly, and possesses a unique blend of passion for cars and a love for the natural world (with a surprising horseshoeing twist!).
