What do you like most about your job?
When I see a vehicle towed in and I repair it and it drives out of the shop. That is really what gives me the most satisfaction!

What is your favorite vehicle at the Quality Automotive Group and why?
Ford GT is the most awesome car Ford ever made, with the exception of the original Ford GT 40.

How is Quality different from other car dealers?
Even though we are a big dealership, the community is small compared to most and you really get a chance to know your customers.

What are your interests?
I enjoy spending time with my family at our 2nd home in Delta, water skiing (I invented a ski machine so i can water ski on Stansbury Lake without a boat so if you see a canoe with a water skier behind it… it’s me). Also active in church leadership, participate in Triathlons and have helped with organizing two local triathlons. Currently I am building a replica of the GT 40 and plan to race at the Miller Motorsports Park.
