About Us

A Simple Ride

A Simple Ride was created with one clear mission. We make car buying easier, smarter, and more transparent. For too long the process has been complicated and stressful, leaving many people unsure if they are getting a fair deal.

Our focus is to change that by using insider knowledge, proven experience, and a personalized approach that puts our clients first. Every month we negotiate and coordinate the purchase and delivery of hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of vehicles for individuals and businesses.

What sets us apart is not only the savings but the peace of mind that comes from having a trusted advocate on your side. Car buying is both a skill and an art. With patience, persistence, and a deep understanding of the industry, we work to secure the best outcome for every client.

At A Simple Ride the goal is straightforward: we handle the challenges so you can enjoy the excitement of driving away in your new car with confidence.

I started A Simple Ride because I truly believe car buying should be exciting instead of stressful. I have spent years working inside the automotive world and I know how confusing and overwhelming it can feel for most people. I use that experience every day to make the process easier and to fight for the best deal possible for my clients.

I graduated from NC State with a degree in Finance and that background taught me the value of details and persistence. Those skills help me make sure every dollar is put to work when I negotiate on behalf of someone who trusts me with their car search.

When I am not talking about cars you can usually find me watching or playing sports. I am a lifelong Carolina Panthers and Charlotte Hornets fan and I love being part of the energy of those teams. Away from work and sports I spend my time with my dog Lucy who never fails to remind me to slow down and enjoy the moment.

At the end of the day I see every deal as more than just paperwork. For me it is about helping people feel confident, comfortable, and excited about the car they drive.
