I am a Chicago native from the Northwest side, Edgebrook, I went to Queen of all Saint and Loyola Academy. I am glad to be working for the Scala Group as they are neighborhood people who care about the customer and their employees. I like to golf, go out on the town, and eat at the latest restaurants! How can I help your car buying needs?
