    In 1995 I had an early mid-life crisis.  I quit my job practicing law at a Boston firm, sold everything I owned (including my 1991 Subaru Legacy wgn and my 1972 Sabre sailboat) and bought Exeter Subaru.

    I had no experience in the car business, but I knew there had to be a better way to sell and service cars.  I thought I had an idea whose time had come:  that folks would love an alternative to the hassles they associate with car buying.

    I am a resident of Greenland, NH.  My two girls attend Berwick Academy.  I am proud to be a long-time member of the Exeter Rotary Club.  My most worthwhile endeavor has been enabling Exeter Subaru to become a great corporate citizen of the community.  We have been fortunate to be able to support Berwick Academy, Families First, Dana Farber Cancer Institute, Seacoast Hospice, Stratham NHSPCA, Womanaid, Pan Mass Challenge, Best Buddies, the Greenland Recreation Dept, Exeter's Dare Program and much more.

    Thank you for considering Exeter Subaru for your vehicle needs.

    I was raised in New Hampshire and have called Stratham home since 1995. I have been with Exeter Subaru since March of 1999.

    When I am not here,  my wife and 3 children keep me very active.  Since they always seem to be going in different directions,  my wife and I often wonder how we haven't lost one yet!

    Thank you to all of our customers who have made this fun.  I look forward to many more years to come at Exeter Subaru.

    I started with Exeter Subaru back in January of 2006.

    I grew up in North Carolina but have lived in the seacoast area of New Hampshire since 1999.

    Not too long after starting here, my wife and I had our first child.  Even though she is our only, she takes up most of my time when I'm not at the dealership.

    If after all that, I do have a minute or two, you'll find me on the local pond fishing.  If you have any stories about the one that got away, I'd love to hear about it.

    Hope to see you soon for a visit to our service dept. or for your next vehicle purchase.

  • Jim LaFlamme
    Business Manager
    (603)778-0300

    I grew up right here in Exeter and graduated from Exeter High School. Before coming to Exeter Subaru I worked at The Rinks at Exeter in the pro-shop, I played hockey growing up  so it was only natural that I started getting paid for all the time I spent in the rink. I still see many familiar faces coming by to look at Subaru's that I recognize from the rink. I guess it makes sense, winter sports and all wheel drive do go hand in hand.

    I started at Exeter Subaru after a good friend of mine from the rink convinced me that I would love working here after he made the same transition. Turns out he was right! I started out here as a product specialist in 2007 helping people find the perfect car. I still assist people with the purchase, just in a different capacity. As the Business Manager it is my responsibility to make sure that paperwork is complete and accurate.

    I currently live in Kingston with my wife, Austin. We have two dogs, Daisy and Mae, which are both mixed breeds that we rescued from down south. When I am not here I am more than likely out exploring New England either with the dogs in tow or on my motorcycle.

    When I'm not working, you can usually find me golfing, exercising or working around the house.

    I'm a single parent and have 3 amazing, athletic, teenage kids that I'm very proud of.

    In 2008,  I started running for exercise and found myself training for local Triathlons. I have competed in a 34 mile International Triathlon and in August of 2012, I completed a 70.3 mile Ironman TriAthlon.

    I recently purchased a Harley Davidson and enjoy cruising around our beautiful state and hope to take it to the mountains this summer and do some camping.

    I was born and raised in Vermont. I moved to New Hampshire and attended Keene State College from 2005-2009. I moved back to Vermont after graduation to work for a ski resort.

    In the summer of 2011, I moved to Portsmouth and joined the Exeter Subaru family. I fell in love with Subaru's when I purchased my 2009 Legacy GT so coming to work for Exeter Subaru was a perfect match.

    Growing up in Vermont, I have always loved nature and developed a passion for several outdoors sports. When I'm not working, you will find me skiing, fishing, hiking or out in my Kayak. My Subie takes me and all my gear everywhere I want to go, from the snowy access roads of the ski country to the dirt paths that take me to my favorite fishing holes. I love my Subaru!!!

    Car shopping was always something I enjoyed and would often tag along with friends and family to help them pick out the perfect car. Now I'm here to help people find the right car and make it an enjoyable and fun experience for folks.

    I have been a New Hampshire resident for 6 years. I grew up with a father in the navy so we moved around some growing up. My dad was stationed in Virginia for about 8 years and then eventually retired in Virginia Beach. After he retired we moved north to Newport, Vermont.

    Let me tell you what a climate change! In my spare time you will most likely find me playing soccer, participating in some other type of outdoor physical activity, or being active with my boys.

    I started here at Exeter Subaru in March of 2011. Before I came here I was a Sales Manager for 2 Hilton hotels for over 3 years. I had to leave there to be a stay at home mom for the last year. Now that it was time for me to go back to work I wanted a change of pace but I still wanted to interact with people on a regular basis. I am excited to grow with this company and to serve our customers to the best of my ability.

    Thanks for reading and I look forward to getting to know you!

    Tim Hartford
    Hi my name is Tim and I was born and raised in the beautiful state of New Hampshire. After graduating from Oyster River High school back in 2008 I became a Youth Fitness Specialist at The Works Family Health and Fitness Center in Somersworth. After 6 years there, I was ready for a change of pace which led me to Exeter Subaru where I have been since October 2011.

    Back in High school I didn't participate in any of the athletic programs instead I continued to pursue my passion of Motocross racing. I have been racing since I can remember and I won a few championships back when I was 16. It was one of the best experiences of my life other than meeting my beautiful wife of course. Krystin and I met back when we were 12 and we haven't looked back since! We were married on October 15, 2011 and had our first baby in late March of 2012.

    Im excited to be joining the Exeter Subaru family and plain on being here for years to come.

    Kyle Defreze
    My name is Kyle Defreze, I have called the New Hampshire seacoast my home for my entire life. In May of 1988 I was born at Exeter hospital, and I have lived in Hampton ever since. Some of my hobbies include hiking, snowboarding, four wheeling, and camping. I was always very active all throughout my childhood. I have to give a lot of credit to my parents for providing me with a very well rounded atmosphere to grow up in. Still to this day I hop on every opportunity to that I have to do some of the things that I love.

    I graduated Winnacunnett high school with the class of 2006. I then went on to further my education at Plymouth State University. The decision to go to PSU was an easy one for me, I went there because there's an abundant amount of hiking trails in the local area, and several ski resorts are just minutes away. With all those factors combined I decided that Plymouth State was the place for me. I graduated with Bachelors in Business Administration and a Minor in Professional Communications. When I was a sophomore at Winnacunnett I started landscaping, I worked part time during the school year then I would work full time throughout the summers. I landscaped every summer throughout my four years in college as well. It provided me with enough money to get myself through school. After graduating, I landscaped for one more full season. During my last few months of landscaping I started to look for another career path to venture down. One day I responded to an ad for a car salesman position here at Exeter Subaru, and with the blink of an eye I went from a landscaper to a car salesman just like that.

    Product Specialist
    (603)778-0300


    As the daughter of a retired Delta pilot, it'll come as no surprise to hear that I've moved around a lot in my life. Born in New Orleans, not long after Hurricane Camille ravaged the area, I spent my very early years moving between my mother's home state of Kentucky and dad's home of southern New Hampshire.

    After I graduated from Proctor Academy in Andover, NH, I headed west to obtain my first degree from Colorado State to be followed shortly after by a second degree from Midway College in Kentucky in the field of Equine Physical Therapy. Having been bitten by the "horse bug" by the time I could walk, starting a business in Equine Therapy in the Lexington, KY area was a natural progression and prove to be an enjoyable experience. I got to work alongside internationally renowned members of the veterinary community and work on million dollar animals...but at the end of the day, I was just a kid playing with horses and having a blast.

    As much as I love my horses, I soon found that I missed New England, and after almost 10 years in the industry, I found myself going "home" to New Hampshire. Knowing I was in for a career change, nothing could've surprised me more to know that I would find a home at Exeter Subaru. Their friendly, approachable manner, always eager to help staff and commitment to providing an exceptional experience for the consumer are all reasons why I'm proud to say that I am here to stay.
