Lance HamlowSales Manager Fort DodgeI've been with Auto$mart since July of 2015, first in Fort Dodge as the Sales Manager and now at our Algona location as the Sales Manager. Born and raised in Fort Dodge and still residing there I make the trek everyday to serve the fine people of Algona and the surrounding area in their vehicle financing needs. My free time, when I'm not helping customers get into their next vehicle, is spent with my wife and kids. I have four kids and three step kids so I'm kept pretty busy with sporting events, music programs and concerts as well as being very active in our church. Thank you for visiting our website today!

Christie JonesFinance Manager - KMCI am from Plainwell, Michigan and Port Charlotte, Florida, but home is wherever my mom is. I have worked at AutoSmart since April of 2014. I enjoy spending time with my family and serving in my church. I love to play volleyball and softball. I am married with 4 kids, 2 dogs, and 7 grandkids. My family loves to help others in whatever way they need. If I were given a vehicle of my choice, it would probably still be a minivan, because what mom doesnââ¬â¢t need her space! ï?Å

Ryan RubeckSales Consultant - AlgonaSales Consultant - ALgona I was born and raised in Spirit Lake, IA but also consider Forest City, IA a hometown. I currently reside in Spencer, IA. I like to spend as much time with my amazing daughter as I can. I also like to take in a movie whenever I can, either at the theater or the drive in. My favorite car would be a Rolls Royce Phantom, but since thatâs unattainable, give me good gas mileage. GBR!
