I was born and raised in Danbury. I have been married to my lovely wife Amy for over 22 years and we currently live in Brookfield with our son. When not at work, I enjoy traveling, working out and playing basketball with my son. We also love to try new restaurants and enjoy eating various international cuisines. Shortly after graduating from Western CT State University in 2003, I began my career in the car business. Today, I am a certified Subaru Service Manager and pride myself in treating each and every customer as if they were a member of my family.

I was driving my 2013 cross trek one Sunday afternoon the last week in September 2020 when the oil/engine light came on, followed soon by many of the dashboard lights- and it was making a bad noise and the last week in September 2020 when the oil/engine light came on, followed soon by many of the dashboard lights- and it was making a bad noise and sputtering! I happened to be 1/4 mile from the Brewster Subaru dealership, so I called in a panic- a complete panic. A man answered the phone and told me to come right in. I drove up, and was met at the door by a man rolling up his sleeves and asking me to pop the hood. I had no idea who he was. He spent 20 minutes checking this and that; he put a quart of oil in and gave me an extra quart to have, just in case. Did I say it was a Sunday afternoon?! He told me to bring the car in the following day to be checked out- that he didn’t know what was wrong with the car, but made it clear I needed to have it worked on. When I asked what I owed for his time and the oil, thinking he must have been one of the mechanics, he said , No charge. He didn’t like the idea of someone on the road in a panic like I had been. He also said if it was his mother/sister/daughter on the road, he would hope someone would help them too. It turns out, this was Nelson, the general manager of the dealership. He was so kind, and so helpful. I traded in my 2013 cross trek at Brewster Subaru the next week for a beautiful 2018 cross trek, and will never buy a car anywhere else! From the manager to the sales team to the financial department to the service team- i was treated with kindness and respect; I felt confident (and so relieved!!!) in all my dealings and will recommend them to anyone and everyone! Thank you Brewster Subaru!! More

Great dealer experience especially during the COVID times I had a very easy and pleasurable experience buying my first new car from Brewster Subaru. During the pandemic they were good about safety precautions I had a very easy and pleasurable experience buying my first new car from Brewster Subaru. During the pandemic they were good about safety precautions and setting up appointments. Everyone was friendly and welcoming, but direct and quick. I walked in and chose my color of car and boom all was done. Days later I picked it up right outside and was on my way. Unfortunately I’ve had some regular reliability and safety issues with my Impreza so it has been back to Brewster Subaru on multiple occasions since my purchase this spring. However their service dept was just as friendly and good to me as the sales dept had been. While I can’t speak worlds about my Subaru experience I would gladly recommend this dealership if you are looking for a solid group of people to work with you. More
