Lexus of Maplewood is excited to highlight John Butina for our December Employee Spotlight.
John has worked at Lexus as a New Car Sales Associate since 2012. He was referred for the position by a Lexus of Wayzata employee, Chris Ilhe. John feels it’s less about selling cars than it is about working with people and appreciates the wonderful people he has met along the way.
John grew up in South Saint Paul and completed 2 years of college at Augsburg. Before working for Lexus of Maplewood, John worked in mortgage banking for 22 years. He has been married for 22 years and loves to spend time with his niece and nephew. He enjoys visiting them at school and taking them out.
In addition to spending time with his niece and nephew, John enjoys spending his spare time golfing. He has been a member of a course for 20 years. He is proud to say he got two hole-in-ones with a 4 iron and both were 200 yards. John is also a contributor and volunteer for Animal Ark and Crohn’s and Colitus Foundation. Crohn’s and Colitus Foundation is a non-profit, volunteer-based organization dedicated to finding cures for Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis. Animal Ark is Minnesota’s largest no-kill shelter for animals.
John’s favorite vacation was a visit to Washington D.C. where he got the opportunity to go on private tours of the White House and Capital during Halloween. He was lucky enough to experience awesome weather and do lots of sightseeing. If John had to recommend a place to visit in the Midwest, he would suggest South Dakota to visit Sioux Falls and Mount Rushmore.
Lexus of Maplewood thanks John for his continued dedication to his customers and the store.
