About Tom
I've been in Subaru sales and leasing for seven years, now at Luther Bloomington Acura Subaru. Originally from southern Minnesota, I enjoy working with people to find the right vehicle for them. My approach is to help guide customers through the process, providing information so they can make informed decisions at their own pace. Outside of work, I'm blessed with a wonderful wife of 28 years, Claire. We're proud parents of Helen, a college senior -- and nearly off the payroll -- and Rosie, a high school senior. My educational background includes the University of Saint Thomas, where I focused on History and Theology. I've been in sales overall for nearly 28 years, and am proud to have earned a good number of awards, including three times as a Subaru Peak Performer, which is on sales numbers, as well as several criteria for customer service. I enjoy representing a brand like Subaru, which has a strong commitment to its customers. Plus, I have a knack for remembering random facts, which sometimes comes in handy!

During a challenging time in my life, following a recent interstate move and the death of my husband, I found Tom to be a good listener when I explained my needs (and wants!). Tom easily offered the information I needed to make choices and knows the Subaru product line very well from a number of years experience. Tom is a very good communicator; he is knowledgeable and knows what he is talking about. He believes in the Subaru brand and can explain why. Tom works quickly and efficiently on the computer so the process is smooth. He was easy to work with. I wasn't just the next customer sitting at his desk. He saw me, heard me, and helped me. I can say he made car shopping enjoyable, and I highly recommend Tom. A bonus is the outcome. I really know I picked the right car for me, and I'm excited about it.

Tom was great. None of the sales pitch that we oftentimes find annoying and can make us queasy. He was well-informed, honest, and attentive.

I hate car buying. I did a lot of research with different dealers and Tom was the one I choose because he worked with me first through emails. I felt comfortable and was really impressed with the test drive. He really went through all the features and how they work.
