    I am a car guy who likes to help people find the best vehicle for their needs and desires. My job is to provide you with the information you need to make an informed decision, and I am quite good at making clients comfortable through that process. I am also a techie, so I can explain the technology in the vehicles in an understandable, plain English way, so that clients feel comfortable with it. When I’m not selling cars, I am often working in my garage on one of my project vehicles, helping out a local non-profit organization, or spending time with my family.

    Hello, my name is Aidan and I am originally from Boulder, Colorado. Before joining the automotive industry, I was a route setter for a small chain of climbing gyms. My favorite vehicle model is the beautiful Polestar 1; I think it was a very bold introduction from a company that initially only did Volvo tunes. I enjoy spending my time playing guitar and listening to music, as well as sessions at the climbing gym. I look forward to seeing you at our dealership and would love to talk to you more about your music interests, and of course our great selection of vehicles!
