I grew up in the Hickory area and graduated from St. Stephens High School in 2007. I have a 10 year old daughter and a dog who is a rescue who steal all of my time. I may be new to the car industry but I’m no novice when it comes to how you treat people. I would love an opportunity to help you find the vehicle that fits you and your family the best. Come see me at Paramount Kia of Hickory!
