Matt has been with the Brenham Chrysler Jeep Dodge family for 15 years now. With years of experience in Sales, Service, Parts and Body Shop, Matt brings well rounded experience to the team. His family works and goes to school here in Brenham and if he's not at the store, you can likely find him at one of the school sporting events or possibly searching through the woods at Brenham Golf Club for one of the shots he's shanked left.

Crystal Nowicki

Crystal Nowicki

Internet Sales Mgr

If you’ve ever submitted a lead on our website and got a lightning-fast response that was friendly, helpful, and maybe just a little too efficient—it was probably Crystal. As our Internet Sales Manager, she’s the digital gatekeeper of Brenham Chrysler Jeep Dodge, making sure no customer gets left unread. A Brenham native with a background in law enforcement, Crystal’s the perfect mix of Southern hospitality and “don’t test me.” She’s been with the dealership for years, working her way up from the sales floor to the command center of our online operation. She knows our inventory better than most people know their Netflix passwords. Crystal is all about making the car-buying process smooth, straightforward, and maybe even fun (yes, really). Whether you’re sending an email at 9 p.m. or shopping from your couch in fuzzy socks, Crystal’s ready with the answers, the deals, and the occasional witty GIF. Off the clock, she’s the one making the team laugh, organizing chaos, and reminding us all that she ran a tight ship before it was cool.

Billy Gonsoulin

Billy Gonsoulin

Finance Manager

Billy Gonsoulin is our Sales Manager and one of the most recognizable personalities in the dealership. With decades of experience in the car business, Billy has seen just about everything the automotive world can throw at a person — and probably has a story about it too. Known for his leadership, sense of humor, and ability to connect with just about anyone, Billy helps keep the sales department running smoothly while making the showroom a much more entertaining place to work. Customers appreciate his experience and honesty, while coworkers appreciate the daily comedy routine that apparently comes included free of charge. Billy is also a former 2 handicap golfer, which he modestly tries not to mention every opportunity he gets… although somehow the topic still comes up regularly. He still approaches golf with the confidence of a touring professional and the occasional frustration of someone who knows exactly how good he used to be. When he’s not helping customers or managing the sales team, Billy can usually be found telling jokes, trading playful insults with coworkers, or delivering one-liners with the timing of someone who genuinely believes he missed his calling in standup comedy. Fortunately for us, he stayed in the car business. What makes Billy especially fun to be around is that he can take a joke just as well as he gives one. His personality, experience, and easygoing attitude help create the kind of welcoming atmosphere customers remember long after they leave the dealership. If you hear laughter coming from the sales tower, there’s a pretty strong chance Billy is in the middle of it.

Jason Chan

Jason Chan

Sales Professional

Born and raised in Brenham, Jason Chan is about as local as Blue Bell and Friday night lights. A proud Brenham High School athlete, Jason spent his days playing football and soccer — which explains both his teamwork skills and his ability to dodge difficult questions from coworkers. Before joining the sales team, Jason worked in our service department turning wrenches and fixing vehicles. Now he’s made the jump to sales, where he still knows more about how vehicles actually work than most people on the lot — he just gets to do it in clean clothes now. Jason is known around the dealership for being affable, easygoing, and friendly to just about everyone he meets. Whether you want to talk horsepower, financing, football, or why Buffalo Wild Wings is somehow always the answer for dinner, Jason’s your guy. His music playlist is just as unpredictable as Texas weather — bouncing between hard rock, country, and hip hop depending on the day and probably the traffic on Highway 290. Customers appreciate Jason because he’s approachable, knowledgeable, and never high-pressure. He’s basically the kind of guy you’d want helping you buy a vehicle… or backing you up in a pickup basketball game after lunch.

Service Staff


Karen Sysak

Karen Sysak

Service Advisor

Karen Sysak is one of those familiar faces that makes Brenham Chrysler Jeep Dodge feel like home. A seasoned service advisor with years of experience, Karen originally worked at the dealership until 2012 before taking a detour into the world of real estate. After helping people buy houses for a while, she eventually found her way back home to the automotive world in 2025 — because apparently she missed answering questions about warning lights and oil changes. Karen is known for being incredibly knowledgeable about vehicles, easy to talk to, and one of the best communicators around. Whether you’re dealing with routine maintenance or an unexpected repair, she has a way of making the process feel simple, stress-free, and maybe even enjoyable… which is saying a lot when your vehicle is making “that noise.” Outside the dealership, Karen spends much of her time traveling across the United States supporting her daughter’s competitive cheer career. Between airports, hotels, competitions, and long weekends on the road, Karen has probably become just as skilled at packing snack bags and navigating convention centers as she is at scheduling service appointments. Customers appreciate Karen because she treats people like neighbors instead of numbers — with honesty, patience, and a great sense of humor. We’re pretty sure half her customers leave the service drive feeling like they just caught up with an old friend.

David Gates

David Gates

Service Director

David Gates is our Service Director, but if you think that means he spends all day sitting behind a desk pushing paperwork, you haven’t met David. More often than not, you’ll find him out in the shop helping technicians diagnose difficult repairs, answering questions, or jumping directly into the action himself. Before joining the Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge, and Ram world, David was a World Class GM technician — which explains why there aren’t many automotive problems that surprise him anymore. His technical knowledge, hands-on leadership style, and years of experience make him a huge resource not only for customers, but for the entire service team. David is known for being direct, honest, and easy to get along with. He believes in doing things the right way, fixing vehicles correctly the first time, and keeping the service department running efficiently. In other words, he runs a tight ship — but one where everybody knows he’s willing to work just as hard as the people around him. Technicians respect David because he understands the work firsthand. Customers appreciate him because he values transparency, quality repairs, and straightforward communication without unnecessary fluff. Around the dealership, David has built a reputation as someone who leads by example. If there’s a difficult diagnosis, a challenging repair, or a problem that needs solving, there’s a pretty good chance David is already halfway through figuring it out before anyone else finishes explaining it.

Jacob Brookins

Jacob Brookins

Service Advisor

Jacob Brookins brings a unique combination of dealership experience, customer service, and gym discipline to our service department. Before becoming a service advisor, Jacob spent time in Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge, and Ram sales — so he already knew how to help customers find the right vehicle. Now he helps them keep those vehicles running their best… while probably still knowing every rebate program from memory. Known for being friendly, thorough, and easy to work with, Jacob takes pride in making sure customers fully understand their vehicle needs without making the process overwhelming. He’s the kind of advisor who pays attention to details, follows up consistently, and somehow still manages to stay calm during the Monday morning service rush. Outside of work, Jacob enjoys weight lifting, golfing, and spending time with family. In fact, there’s a good chance he’s either at the gym, on a golf course, or explaining why “this round was going great until hole 14.” Customers appreciate Jacob because he combines experience with genuine care for people. Coworkers appreciate him because he works hard, stays organized, and can probably help move heavy office furniture without needing assistance. Whether you need vehicle advice, service recommendations, or tips on improving your golf swing by exactly zero strokes, Jacob’s always happy to help.
