Scott Alan Hunt, Professional Sales Associate, Courtesy Kia. All of my friends say I have never met a stranger. I love to meet new friends. I’m a people person…What can I say! I currently live in East Mesa, so I am local. I’ve been in Arizona for over 30 years. I moved here from Killeen Texas. I love Arizona and its people. There are people here from everywhere. I think that is so cool. I have pretty much done it all as far as a career goes. From picking up trash to working at Paloverde Nuclear Generating Station. But I love the car business! I must because I have been doing it for 29 years. My motto is “Make a friend, sell a car!”

I was born here and moved around for a few decades, then returning to the valley 9 years ago. My hobbies are shooting and boating. I have 6 grand-babies and 5 kids. My favorite sport is off-shore boat racing. I have been in the business for 36 years. My favorite thing about Kia’s is their reliability and stylish design. The best thing about working for Courtesy Automotive Group is they take care of all their customers. The goal I have for my customers is that will have the most perfect possible experience when purchasing an automobile with me.

Hi guys, my name is Marissa Mansch. I’m originally from Las Vegas, NV, but I have been in Arizona a little over 5 years now. I have been with Kia for a year and a half and I absolutely love this business. Being in the automotive industry was definitely a blessing in disguise. I had an impulsive move and took the first job opportunity that came my way and now I wouldn’t want to be in any other industry! This business has helped me grow and expand my knowledge beyond just car sales. It has been a very rewarding experience. My main goal is to go into finance because I like to make it possible for my customers to leave the dealership completely satisfied with the car that they love and enjoy. I hope that you will join us down here and let us show you “The Courtesy Way”.

My name is April Green. I am an Arizona native and grew up in Prescott. I raised my 4 children in Prescott and now am a very proud Grandma of 10 grandchildren! I love camping, cooking, gardening, and traveling. My passion is customer service. I get superior satisfaction from a happy, smiling customer. I have been giving my customers the top priority for over 40 years. I bought my 1st Kia in 2006 and have been sold on Kia’s and their “best in class warranty” ever since. I chose Courtesy Kia because I am a big fan of family owned-operated local business that will treat me and my customers like family. I have old fashioned values that show in everything I do.
