    Jack Cardella

    General Manager

    I am a Colorado Native and actually grew up right here in Aurora. I joined the automotive industry officially in 2014 but I am the 3rd generation in my family to work in the auto industry. I have 4 beautiful kids—three girls and one boy. In my free time I love being on the golf course or at home with my family. I am very passionate about this industry not because of the cars themselves, but because of the lives I get to affect on a day-to-day basis. I am a huge sports fan and if you asked my wife, she’d say I have a problem.

    Sales Manager

    Some call me by “Kit”, but most people call me “Kristen” or “KG”. I was born and raised in the Dallas, TX area. But, prior to moving to Denver in December 2020, I lived in Iowa City, Iowa.

    I’m new to the automotive industry, as of 2021, but I’ve been working in customer service for over 16 years and I love a good challenge. Before joining the Schomp team, I’d been working as a Veterinary Assistant for 7 years. I have a great love for all animals my entire life.

    I spend my free time going to concerts, hiking, spending time with my two dogs and cat as well as my husband, and trying different wine varieties. I also love to read, as well as spend my time painting/drawing, and have been known to commission art for my friends and acquaintances.

    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.

    Client Advisor

    Hello, my name is Dean! I’m originally from Chicago and moved to Colorado in 2021. I joined the automotive industry in 2026 at Schomp Ford, after working in Construction Sales. I’m a big fan of the F-Series trucks because of their versatility — whether you need a basic work truck, a beast for towing your largest equipment or toys, an aggressive off-roader, or a comfortable daily driver, there’s a model for it. When I’m not at work, I love getting outdoors through hiking, off-roading, archery, golf, and scuba diving. I’ve wanted to live near the mountains since I was young, and now that I’m here, I spend as much time in them as I can — they’re a stunning playground that rarely disappoints.

I joined the Schomp team in 2018 after working as a Health and Safety Supervisor for UPS in the North New Jersey and Southern New York Districts, while also maintaining a presence in the hospitality industry for almost 18 years.  The 1967 Lincoln Continental stands out as my favorite vehicle – a true classic that will never get old. When I’m not at the dealership, you’ll find me hiking, camping, freshwater fishing, driving without a destination, drumming (poorly), and spending time with loved ones!
