Abilene is my hometown, and after graduating from college in 2009, I am proud to be able to again call Abilene home. I began my career as a Sales and Leasing Consultant at Holm Automotive, and have had the opportunity to reconnect with many in the community whom I had known and respected growing up. I currently serve as Sales Manager. My other passions include spending time with my daughter, who is 2 1/2, and coaching wrestling. Currently, I am active in coaching the youth wrestling program in Abilene. Helping area wrestlers reach their potential as athletes and individuals is very rewarding. Thank you to those who have allowed me the opportunity to assist in your vehicle purchase. Let me take this chance to invite you to visit Holm Automotive. We are in the business of exceeding expectations!
