Meet the Team

I am a native Montanan. I spent the first part of my live in Cooke City and from there moved to Billings and then to Bigfork. My dad has been in the car business for 55 years so I kinda have it in my blood.  I moved back to the valley in 2009 to get married and run Kalispell Hyundai.  My wife and I were married in 2010 and have 2 boys since.  We enjoy the lake in the summer and the ski mountain in the winter. The shoulder seasons are also great as there is hunting and hiking. Its a great place to raise a family and they is why we chose to stay.

in 2014 my business partner, Kevin Linrude, opened 406 Motors.  We figured Kalispell was missing a premium pre-owned dealership. I brought my knowledge from a new car dealership and he brought the ability to keep the inventory plentiful and the cost down.  Since our opening we have been bringing the best pre-owned vehicles at the best prices and strive to make sure our customers are our main focus. Come check up out.

I have worked with Elijah for a long 9 years and started as a sales consultant at 406 Motors when he opened the store in 2014. I’m originally from the UK, but moved here when I turned 16. Now a proud American citizen I spend time with my family doing the things all Montanans love to do. In our rare spare time we hunt, ski, enjoy the lakes, fish and play in the local soccer leagues. Vehicle sales and dealership ownership was always the dream for me, even as a child. I have always loved cars so to say I enjoy my job is an understatement. These days I sit behind the window dealing with the management side of a dealership with duties ranging from reconditioning and detail to working deals and after sales care.  I have worked for Elijah and 406 Motors for as long as I have because I respect the values that he, and we, try to instill in the store every day. There are too many dealers out there that only care about making the sale and I truly appreciate that there is more to it than that for 406 Motors.

I was born and raised in Alaska and moved to Montana in 2011.  I now lives in Bigfork with my two sons, Jack and Matt, and my boyfriend. I love the Flathead Valley and enjoy each season and all of their activities.  We Ski, Fish, Hike, Boat and Hunt.  We stay super busy with the outdoors and the kiddos.

I started selling cars at Kalispell Hyundai in 2011 and have been in the business since. I Joined the Team in 2017 after constantly hearing great things them. So if you’re looking for a great vehicle as well as a low pressure buying experience come in and ask for me.

As someone who enjoys the outdoors and the backcountry, the Flathead valley is an amazing place to live and work.  My Wife and I have 4 children, 3 boys and 1 girl.  As a family we spend as much time as possible in the woods.  Hunting, hiking, fishing and shooting are the things we enjoy the most.  We are happily involved in our church in Bigfork.  It is our pleasure to work and serve in the Flathead Valley.  We hope to never have to leave this place!!

Before moving to the Flathead Valley I was in Virginia at Winchester Ford for 6 years. If you are looking for a nicer newer vehicle with a great buying experience please as for me.  God Bless!!
