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.

Friendly no pressure sales I made two visits to test drive and received excellent customer service from a knowledgeable sales team both times. They communicated with me promptly I made two visits to test drive and received excellent customer service from a knowledgeable sales team both times. They communicated with me promptly via email & by phone. They do negotiate a little but do not pressure you with multiple calls. I know from a past experience the service center is top notch as well. Buy your Volvo here. More

Laid back and good service I went looking to purchase a 2017 Subaru Forester, upon arrival, I noticed that something was wrong with the sunroof on the vehicle. Mike, the sales a I went looking to purchase a 2017 Subaru Forester, upon arrival, I noticed that something was wrong with the sunroof on the vehicle. Mike, the sales associate, saw this and offered to repair it. I haven’t had a problem with it since. He allowed me and my family to test drive the car alone before I bought it. It was a no pressure sale, unlike some other places that I’ve been to. I was very comfortable thoughout the whole process. I would recommend this place for anyone looking to buy a vehicle. More

What a team! I was a first time buyer and very sceptical of how the whole process would turn out for me and my family. Then I met Aaron the "Salesman" in my eyes.. I was a first time buyer and very sceptical of how the whole process would turn out for me and my family. Then I met Aaron the "Salesman" in my eyes... But I gotta say he had my new Denali warm and ready to test drive within minutes! This is 15 minutes before closing time! Even after my purchase they are still in contact with me to make sure I'm still totally satisfied. Great group, nice place, great selection and it's guaranteed you can't make it out of there without a car wash... More
