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.

Great salesman, terrible finance dept. Great experience with salesman. Very helpful in answering our questions and working with us on price. The financing part was terrible: it was rushed, Great experience with salesman. Very helpful in answering our questions and working with us on price. The financing part was terrible: it was rushed, confusing, and we were shamed for choosing to opt out of the extra warranties. Left us with a sour taste in our mouths masking the relief we had previously felt about finally selecting a car and getting a good price. Brought an otherwise 5 star experience to a 3. More

car buying experience made simple Gorges Volvo is a no pressure dealership that simplified our buying experience. Once we decided on which car we were getting we had the whole deal wr Gorges Volvo is a no pressure dealership that simplified our buying experience. Once we decided on which car we were getting we had the whole deal wrapped up within about an hour. This included a trade in and financing. Chad told us they'd make us a deal that would be very difficult to refuse and they were right. We were going to sell our car on our own but why bother when they gave us a very fair trade in. Dan spent the whole day with us driving cars and never did we feel any pressure. He was patient and always happy to answer all of our MANY questions. Joel got us decent financing that beat our bank. This is our second car we've purchased at Gorges and we will probably always purchase our cars here. More

Fantastic service on a trade & buy transaction We visited Gorges dealership a few times as we were shopping vehicles and searching for a great car to suit our family needs. The customer service and We visited Gorges dealership a few times as we were shopping vehicles and searching for a great car to suit our family needs. The customer service and expertise on the various Volvo models was extremely helpful in determining which of the Volvos, if any, would be best for our family. All of the employees we worked with were extremely friendly, didn't push or pressure for the sale, and worked hard to ensure all of our requirements were met. Expectations exceeded! More

Customer Centric I traveled from Oklahoma for a pre-owned Lincoln Navigator. The vehicle was appropriately listed and priced on the internet. Mike and Chad were straig I traveled from Oklahoma for a pre-owned Lincoln Navigator. The vehicle was appropriately listed and priced on the internet. Mike and Chad were straightforward and upfront about the vehicle. I arrived first thing in the morning and the vehicle was detailed and waiting for me. After inspecting and a test drive, I knew for sure it was everything advertised and more. The guys were friendly and professional throughout. I arrived in a rental car and they arranged a ride for me back to the dealership when I returned the rental. I highly recommend Mike, Chad and Gorges Volvo for used car purchases. I would expect their new Volvo side of the house will provide the same great treatment. Thanks Mike, Chad and Gorges Volvo. More
