Meet Our Staff

I was born and raised in Southern Colorado. I attended Colorado State University – Pueblo where I obtained a degree in Civil Engineering. Shortly after I graduated, I decided engineering really wasn’t what I wanted to do. I was offered a job with a water ski company where I worked on R&D, testing, and sales. After nine years, I was offered a position in Orlando, FL with Toyota Motor Sales in the newly created Marine Division working on the launch and sales of their ski boat line called EPIC. I worked four years in the Marine Division when I was offered a position as Area Sales Manager at Toyota Financial Services working out of the Denver Office. Pedersen Toyota was an account of mine for several years. I worked closely with Gerry and Mark Pedersen for all their financial services needs for Toyota and Volvo. It was always a fun and productive visit with the two. It was during this time I knew this was a first-class organization and they truly cared about their customers and employees. Even after Pedersen was no longer under my day-to-day responsibilities, I continued to support the dealership as needed. In 2016 I left the Denver office and spent five years at Toyota North American Headquarters in Plano Texas. In 2020 Mark Pedersen shared his vision with me and we came to the agreement to join this amazing dealership in January, 2021, as the Chief Operating Officer. Gerry and Mark Pedersen were always a favorite dealer and I am honored to carry on the family traditions and to help guide an elevated customer and employee experience. I’ve been fortunate to live in several places and made many lifelong friends in Pueblo, Denver, Seattle, WA, Huntington Beach, CA, Orlando, FL, Parker, Dallas, TX, and now call Timnath, CO home. I have one daughter and one son and in 2021 we welcomed the first grandchild into the family. In my limited spare time I like to wake surf (boat) and golf.

I was born and raised in Albuquerque, New Mexico. I moved to Colorado Springs, Colorado in 2002 and graduated from Rampart high school in 2004. I attended Eastern Arizona College to pursue a basketball career. I moved back to Colorado Springs, Colorado in the summer of 2007. I started my career in the automotive industry as a sales consultant at Phil Long Kia in Chapel Hills. I worked for the Phil Long group for a total of 3 years and served various roles in management from finance manager, new car sales manager, used car manager. In 2009 I moved to Bob Penkhus Mazda in the powers auto park as a finance manager. In 2010 I was promoted to General Sales manager. In 2011 I started at the Larry H Miller Liberty Toyota as used car manager. At the age of 25 I was appointed as General Manager of Larry H Miller Volkswagen in Lakewood, Colorado. In 2014 as 27 years old, I was awarded 40 under 40 by automotive news as one of the top young professionals in the automotive industry. January of 2016 I was awarded General Manager at Larry H Miller Boulder Toyota and oversaw 135 employees. April 1st, 2021 I moved to Stevinson Toyota East as the General manager. I started with Pedersen Toyota Volvo August of 2023. I am a proud father of four kids, one son and three daughters. I served as the assistant head coach for Erie high school varsity basketball program from 2019-2021. I enjoy spending time with my family, working out, and watching and attending all sporting events.

I have lived in Fort Collins for over 30 years. I went to Poudre High school and went to College at UNC. I’m very lucky to have a beautiful wife with two amazing children. I’m also lucky to have had a career at Pedersen since 1999 where I’ve painted cars, worked in sales, and become a Sales Manager. I’ve had the pleasure of working with an amazing staff for all of these years and I’m grateful for the family atmosphere at the dealership. When I’m not at work I enjoy fly fishing, snowboarding, and watching my favorite sport Football. I look forward to assisting my team when you come to Pedersen for your next purchase.

I was born and raised in Fort Worth, Texas before moving to Colorado in 1973, shortly after my dad opened a dealership in Fort Collins. I worked with my dad for about 15 years. I began working at Pedersen several months after my Dad sold his dealership and will celebrate my 25th year with Pedersen Toyota in January 2022. Pedersen has been a great place to work over the years - so glad I landed here!! When not working, I love spending time with my family and grandkids, visiting Texas to see family and friends and a trip or two with my sisters each year. I also enjoy joining a group of 10 high school friends for an annual trip/reunion.

Hi, I grew up in Maryland and came to Colorado to attend Colorado State University and never left! My first job after graduation was here at Pedersen as a Sales Consultant and it's been 20 years. Easily my favorite thing about my job is the people. Over the years I have developed so many long-term relationships with people that feel more like friends than customers. Another great perk of this job are the Toyotas! I bought my first 4Runner in 1999 and drove it for 16 years! Now my family has two, a Sequoia and a Tundra. I live in Windsor with my husband, Clayton, my son Kyle 15, and daughters Madison 12, and Kayla, 9. And then there's our fur baby family. We have a Bernese Mountain Dog, McKinley, a Rottweiler named Justice, and a Great Pyrenees mystery-mix puppy named Titan. And last but not least, our two Snowshoe cats, Mittens and Lucky.

I am originally from Beaumont Texas. Please don’t hold that against me. I moved to Fort Collins in 1988 and graduated from Poudre High School in 1994. I went on to Chadron State College where I graduated with a degree in business. I have been at Pedersen for 14 years now. I have been married to my beautiful wife for 24 years, and we have 2 amazing children. My son Tavian is 22 and is finishing up his degree in Forestry and Wildlife from Front Range Community College. My daughter Tatum is 19 and is in her first year at CSU where she is majoring in Mechanical Engineering. I look forward to helping you find the perfect vehicle for your needs.

I was born and raised in Texas but have now been in Fort Collins nearly half my life. I have been married to my wife Adriane for 12 years and am the father of two beautiful girls. I've been with Pedersen Toyota since 2017! It has been a pleasure helping people in this community find the right vehicle for their needs, and I look forward working here for years more to come!

I am a native of Colorado, having been raised in Loveland. After high school, I attended CSU, where I met my husband in August of 1999. We now have a daughter named Ava who is 13, and a 8th grader at Preston Middle School. Our son Evan is 11, and a fifth grader at Zach Elementary. I started at Pedersen Toyota in January of 2011, and can’t believe it’s been 12 years! I LOVE helping customers find the right vehicle for themselves or their family, and take pride in making the process very fun, smooth and EASY!

Hi, I'm originally from Nebraska and moved to Colorado five years ago. I've been in automotive sales for eleven years doing everything from Fleet and Commercial sales to used car management. Before that I served as a US Marine and worked in Coal Mining as a welder, a plant operator and a heavy equipment operator. I started here about three years ago and can say that Pedersen is one of the most established and well respected companies I’ve had the pleasure of working for. I personally drive a 2019 Tundra but am often recommending the new 2021 Venza to customers as they are the most well rounded, capable, and economical small SUV a person can get at a truly phenomenal value. I am very fortunate to share my life with my 4-year-old daughter Kalani, and our English Bulldog. I am currently building a house in Windsor and can’t wait to move in.

Hi my name is Josh. I was raised here in Fort Collins, moved to Vail for 4 years, then to San Diego for 7 years, and now back to call Fort Collins my home. I have been a sales associate in the car industry for close to 9 years now and love what I do. Toyotas are amazing vehicles and I couldn’t ask to promote a better product. I also couldn’t be happier with the team I work with and the management here at Pedersen Toyota. Not only is it a great place to buy a car but it’s a great place to work.

Hi! I was born in upstate New York but have lived in Fort Collins since 2000. I have been with Pedersen Toyota since April 2019 after working with children with autism. When I’m not working, I enjoy baking, playing video games, and walking my cat. I can’t wait to help you find your dream vehicle!

I am a proud Colorado native, growing up in Windsor part time and the Vail valley the other part! I am a graduate of the University of Northern Colorado with a background in education. I met my wife while working at my previous job with Verizon Wireless, and now have 3 BEAUTIFUL daughters that are the reasons I get up every morning! I began my career in the auto industry with Pedersen Toyota in 2021, and feel very fortunate to have been given the opportunity to join this amazing sales family. I absolutely love talking to people and helping them to make an informed decision that is right for themselves and their families. I am easy to talk to and will make your car shopping experience informative, simple, and, most importantly, enjoyable!

I grew up in Florida and in 2018 my wife and I decided to pack up and head to Colorado! We’ve been here ever since. We have a new baby girl and are thrilled watching her grow! I’ve been in the auto industry for close to 8 years and I’ve been at Pederson Toyota since 2018! My favorite part of the job is getting to meet so many wonderful people and making sure they find the perfect vehicle for them. In my spare time you can fine me spending time with my family, my many cats and dogs, or hiking!

Yes, yes, I am the Spanish speaking sales consultant here at Pedersen Toyota! I am what you would call a citizen of the world, being born in Central America, in a small country called Guatemala, from an American mother and a Guatemalan father. Furthermore my father’s family originated in Spain, while my mom’s on Great Britain. I have been working at Pedersen in the sales department for close to four years now, never working in the automotive industry before I have fallen in love with it, especially the people (my co-workers and customer’s alike). Coming from a financial (banking) background, I can tell you that the automotive industry is fascinating, and I have learned so much in my short time in the business. I like mountain and road biking and skiing, even thou I am not very good at either, I love the outdoors and wish I could spend more time out there. My wife and I love to travel the world, meet new people and see different cultures. Ask for me when you come in looking for your next vehicle and maybe we’ll practice your Spanish throughout the process. ??

I am originally from Jacksonville Beach Florida and moved to Fort Collins in 2018 to start my career at Pedersen Toyota. This is my first full time position after graduating from the University of North Florida where I ran Cross Country and Track while interning at AXA Advisors. I still enjoy running but am excited to translate my experience surfing to snowboarding! I drive a 4Runner and absolutely love it and the Toyota brand. My favorite however is the classic Toyota FJ40! People call me Brad but I have earned many nicknames around Pedersen due to the volume of my hair. Every day my teammates find a new one for me like Kramer, Blonde Troll Doll, Burt Lancaster or James Dean! I love selling Toyota and working with a team that makes the job a lot of fun!

I am originally from Latvia, was adopted out of an orphanage, brought to Fort Collins, CO when I was 3 and have lived here ever since. I have been selling cars since early 2015 and and have been lucky enough to represent Pedersen Toyota since 2017. I absolutely LOVE people and my daily interactions with my customers. In my free time, I enjoy anything involving the out doors. I especially enjoy running, snowboarding, horseback riding and hiking with my black lab named Jet. I also enjoy cruising around the mountains in my Tacoma. I will be happy to assist you with anything, big or small and look forward to making your experience at Pedersen Toyota truly a great one.

I was born and raised in Fort Collins and enjoy everything Northern Colorado has to offer. Outside the office I enjoy doing anything automotive related and adventuring in the outdoors. I have been in the industry for over 5 years with experience preowned sales and reconditioning. I would love to assist you with getting the best value for your vehicle and help you though there best options for lease end.

I’ve been with Pedersen for more than seven years now. When I am not helping our service guests and I am away from work I enjoy playing video games and spending time with my wife and two dogs. I also like to build fast cars with friends and go camping in the summer.

I have been a Service Advisor at Pedersen Toyota for the past 15 years and worked in the car business for a total of 33 years. I enjoy shooting, hunting, fishing, and working on cars and motorcycles. Something you may not know about me is I take pride in being a very honest person and truly care about people. One of my greatest accomplishments was being able to help my family build 2 homes! I am also very proud of the fact that my home is paid off and I am very close to being completely debt free.
