I began my career at Honda of Columbia in 2016 as an oil change technician and advanced through the certified technician training program, earning my certification. I also served as a Used Car Technician during my time in the service department. After eight years of hands-on automotive experience, I transitioned into the role of Service Advisor and have since moved into sales. With a comprehensive understanding of both our vehicles and dealership operations, I’m well equipped to answer any questions and help you find the right vehicle. Visit me at Honda of Columbia!
