I started working at Kemna in April 2001 and then later began working at AutoSmart. I attended Blue Earth High School in Blue Earth Minnesota, and then attended and graduated from ILCC - Small Business Management. I grew up in Elmore, MN and I currently live here in Algona. I am married and have three children. One of our kids is currently attending Drake Law School and the other two are going to School here in Algona. We love to Camp and Boat, and we love supporting our kids in their school sports. My Favorite Car: Camaro ZL1

Sales Consultant - ALgona I was born and raised in Spirit Lake, IA but also consider Forest City, IA a hometown. I currently reside in Spencer, IA. I like to spend as much time with my amazing daughter as I can. I also like to take in a movie whenever I can, either at the theater or the drive in. My favorite car would be a Rolls Royce Phantom, but since that’s unattainable, give me good gas mileage. GBR!

I started working for Autosmart in April of 2015. I was born in Titonka, graduated from Sentral (Fenton) and now live in Lone Rock. I have a dual major from Briar Cliff University- Business and Accounting. I am married with 2 children and 7 grandchildren. My spare time is spent with my family, gardening and scrapbooking.

I was born in Omaha Neb but I grew up my whole life in Sioux City. I went to University of Northern Iowa. After graduation in 2002 I moved to Tallahassee Florida and that is where I got into the car business. I moved back up to Sioux City in 2008. I relocated up here in 2010 and proceeded to sell cars in the lakes area. My interests are Chicago Bears football. Its rough being a bears fan. I am very busy setting up my new place that I purchased in October. I try to get back to Sioux City to catch a Sioux City Bandits game or just to hang out with family and friends.
