I was born and raised in Cape Town, South Africa. Immigrated to Vancouver, Canada where I joined the Canadian Army. I met my American Special Forces Husband of 34yrs on the air force base where I was stationed. I then moved to Sacramento and now live in Shingle Springs!! I have been a Talent Scout for 30years but when COVID struck it changed my career direction. I found the Automotive industry very similar to finding talent and placing them on the right path. Meeting customers and getting to know them is my greatest pleasure and my gift of finding them the right car is such a joy. I have always been an advocate for customers and making sure they have the best experience. I pride myself on making sure every customer feels my integrity, honesty and pure joy when we find them the perfect solution to their needs and wants!!

I chose to buy my new MINI from Niello over 2 other dealerships that also had a model I wanted because of my loyalty over the years to the dealership, and to Creed himself. More
