Valerie Robbins
Sales Consultant
(989) 497-4444 ext 1642About Me:
My name is Valerie Robbins, but my friends and family call me Skye. I have been at Garber Buick in sales for almost 4 months now. I attended Robert Morris Culinary Institute and Le Cordon Bleu in Chicago for a year before moving back to Michigan and attending Saginaw Valley State University for a year before being sidetracked by work and family. I am celebrating 15 years of marriage to my husband, Tim, this summer. We have 3 children, Kelsi who is 13, Rae who is 11 and Pierce who is 8. I am an avid NASCAR fan. In my spare time, I sew, bake, read and make candy. My absolute favorite thing to do in the world is to sit on a beach just watching the waves. My career goals are very simple… I will be the best at what I do. I will work my way up to being the best and pay my dues, but I am not done until I am at the top and can go no further.

Matthew Larson
Sales Consultant
(989) 497-4444 ext 1604About Me:
Hi! My name is Matthew Larson, but most people just call me Matt. I’m always full of smiles and enthusiasm, which I enjoy sharing with my clients. Growing up I was home schooled all the way through high school, which allowed me to work a number of jobs and to dual enroll at Delta College at the age of 15. This let me graduate early, and work in a number of industries spanning from Agriculture to Aviation to Professional Test Track Driver (I have plenty of funny stories from that one, just ask!). I joined Garber in February 2014 so that I could spend more time with my family, and have quickly found it to be the best company I have ever worked for. When you come to the dealership you can spot me by my brightly colored socks and edgy haircuts- be ready to smile and have a great experience 🙂
