Meet Our Staff

Michael grew up in the northern parts of Vermont and has been in the customer satisfaction business since 1990. He started his career with a Goodyear Tire store in St. Johnsbury, Vermont where the population is small, so customer satisfaction is more than just a phrase, it’s a requirement. Word travels fast in a small community and one’s reputation is important. Michael has over 23 years of service experience and has been part of the Desert European team for 3 years. He recently returned this past September from a short stint at a local dealer. He is so pleased to be back and looks forward to many more years. His main love, besides his wife of 28 years and 3 kids and working with cars, is music. Michael has lead a few classic rock cover bands throughout the Riverside and Coachella Valley area and can be found singing on any given weekend at a local dive bar or upscale theater.

Casey has been with the Land Rover Brand for over 20 years, he stays because he loves the product, the people, and the lifestyle. “I think it’s impossible to fail, I feel there is nothing I can’t fix, if you give me the time. When times get tough, I just remember that it is what it is.” -Casey Diggins.
