🌟 Employee Spotlight: Mike Hook – Service Manager at Granbury KIA

-
Image
 If there’s one thing you notice right away about Mike Hook , it’s that he’s built his career — and life — on hard work, curiosity, and connection. Mike’s automotive journey began in 1994 , when he answered an ad in Baltimore for a Service Advisor trainee position. That simple step sparked a lifelong passion for the automotive world. Over the years, he’s worked with several dealerships and automotive groups before finding his home at Granbury KIA . But Mike’s story doesn’t stop at cars. In 2006 , he followed another dream and opened his first restaurant — proving he’s not afraid to take on new challenges (or probably cook up something delicious). Outside of work, you’ll find him riding his motorcycle , camping , or cooking — anything that combines freedom, nature, and good food. Mike also proudly served in the military from 1987 to 2007 , totaling 12 years of service across multiple periods. That discipline and dedication still show up in his leadership every day. A proud f...
