Auto Broker serving Denver and the surrounding areas

MY PASSION FOR THE AUTO INDUSTRY COMES FROM…

Growing up in rural Upstate New York, cars represented freedom and access to new experiences. I have fond memories of helping my father maintain a faithful old Ford F-150. I overcame a shameful start – a 1980 Ford Fiesta – and developed a lifelong love of cars. I tuned into Top Gear on the BBC and was hooked thereafter.

I started my career in New York City working for a boutique money management firm. Earning and keeping client trust was essential. I intentionally sought out and worked for customer-focused companies – Berkshire Hathaway, Amazon.com, H.M. Brown & Associates – because their approach is aligned with my principles.

My professional experience is firmly anchored in finance. I worked on complex deals and projects that required creativity and compromise to complete. I strive to find solutions and overcome obstacles, and pride myself on doing what is best for clients. That is, I promote your goals over mine. I want to be your automotive partner for life.

MY FAVORITE THING ABOUT BEING AN AUTO BROKER IS…

I was attracted to H.M. Brown & Associates because of the freedom of choice and flexibility I can offer clients. I can source any make or model vehicle from a variety of sources – OEM dealers, private owners & dealers, wholesalers and auction houses. Rather than selling a single brand I can learn what my clients want and find vehicles that satisfy those needs.

I EARN A LOT OF REPEAT BUSINESS AND REFERRALS BECAUSE…

I am not a car salesman. I am a car lover - helping clients find their best next vehicle, regardless of make or model. I’m a good listener and dedicated problem solver. I value customer service and seek to provide a convenient, professional experience.

MORE ABOUT ME…

I moved to Denver in 2001 after road tripping from New York City to Los Angeles via the Grand Canyon with my wife, a good friend and 2 Labrador Retrievers…in a Honda Accord! My wife, 2 sons and our rescue dog now live in the Central Park neighborhood.

We take full advantage of Colorado by frequently visiting the state’s rivers and streams to fly fish and hike. We also enjoy skiing, biking and camping. I married into a devoted Broncos family with season tickets going back 40+ years.
