I have been with Red Wing Chevrolet-Buick-Cadillac for just over 16 years. Before I started here work for the City of Red Wing as a police officer (16 years) and a family owed restaurant (3). I have a great passion for the outdoors. I do some hunting mostly Deer and Pheasant. Sports have been a great part of my life. I grew up playing football,hockey and baseballs. I continued to play softball and hockey into my later thirties. Bigger part of my life is my family. Married to my beautiful wife Teri for over 31 years. I have two great children Vanessa (27) and Anthony(24). One reason I have stayed here is the people I get to work with every day. Every day I get the chance to meet new people and I enjoy the feeling of watch customer leave with a smile on there face with a new/used vehicle. My job here is to make sure the customer finds the right vehicle with the right information and price to make a good decision to purchase.
