I grew up in a small town called Wymore, Nebraska which is located two hours south of Omaha. In 2005, I graduated from Nebraska Christian College, and in 2012, I received my Master's in School Counseling. In my free time I enjoy playing golf and spending time with my family. I also enjoy rooting on the Huskers and Hawkeyes, needless to say the day after Thanksgiving is like watching my parents fight. Although I am not currently using my Master's in a school setting, counseling others make wise decisions in the car ownership experience is very important to me. My job here at Gorges Volvo Cars is to not only make sure you have a great experience the day you visit us, but for your entire ownership with your new car. Our Mission statement is to offer the highest level of quality products and service to establish life-long customers. I truly enjoy having our customers leave my office knowing they will be protected and having the peace of mind that we have their best interest in mind.

Her honest, low pressure approach was unlike anything I have ever dealt with at a car dealership. It was refreshing to say the least.

Excellent Service-not a 1 and done style We bought our first car from them in 2010, and kept up the service to my Scion from their Excellent knowledge able Service Techs, even though I didn't We bought our first car from them in 2010, and kept up the service to my Scion from their Excellent knowledge able Service Techs, even though I didn't always do my service there, everytime I came back for my next oil change they knew me by name and noted the issues to fix or need to pay attention to in the near future. Chad who is still there and climbed the ranks, but still acknowledged us when ever we came by for service, so we gladly came back to purchase our next vehicle almost 10 yrs later, to hopefully last as long or longer and will continue to use their Service, Thank you for all that you do and more that is not noted.
