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.

I’m a first time car buyer (at 16) and I was guided through the whole process. He was highly recommended from a friend and I would highly recommend him as well. He taught me about the whole process. From actually choosing a vehicle and about insurance and others costs I should consider. I learned so much and couldn’t have had a better experience. He made the journey exciting and celebrated with me. More

Used truck buying experience From the test drive (we even went off-roading on our test drive) to buying the truck, it was a great experience. The staff was very courteous, helpful From the test drive (we even went off-roading on our test drive) to buying the truck, it was a great experience. The staff was very courteous, helpful and answered all our questions. We feel confident in our purchase and the loyalty program is a great bonus. Shout out to our salesperson Devon for all the help and for coordinating everything. He even helped detail the truck and followed up with us after the purchase. I would not hesitate to use Gorrud's again. More
