I started my career in the auto industry in 2001. I spent the first 6 years as a Product Advisor and since 2007 I have been in a management roll. Cars have always been a passion of mine and having worked in sales previously in the food industry my passion for dealing with customers also grew. I found that merging the two together was a perfect mix. Working here at Gorrud’s for the past 8 years has been a great learning experience and I find myself constantly growing as a professional in this industry. Hobbies include, cooking, listening to music and when I have time physical activities.

Ron Silverman provided quality customer service, was informative and honest in his approach. We didn't feel pressured and felt reassured that the vehicle was properly inspected and prepared for resale. The car was handed to us in a clean and ready condition. Gorrud's also offered a few service related incentives and rebates. They had a fairly large selection for the type of vehicle we were looking for. We would definitely get a car from them again and would recommend them to others. More
