About Noah
I was born and raised in White Bear Lake and been in the car business since 2001. I love helping people solve their transportation needs through my passion for cars. I have truly found my home at Buerkle, a great place to work and an even better place to purchase a car. It is wonderful to find a dealership that embraces the community they serve. I enjoy spending time with my wife and 4 children on the St. Croix River and anything we can do outdoors.

About Duane
How long have you been with Buerkle? I am very happy to say I have been with the Buerkle organization for 30 years, starting in 1986 as a Buick salesperson. After the first year I transferred to used car sales. Five years later, I became the assistant used car sales manager. In April of 2000 I was given the job of used car manager and remain in that position to the present. What do you love about working at Buerkle? I have enjoyed the many years of being a part of a close knit organization. The open door policy that the owners have makes the work environment fun to show up every day. What is your special expertise? I believe I am a great advocate for the salespeople. I realize without them we would not sell the vehicles. I work hard at being a good listener and use common sense when making the decisions I have to make as part of the management team. What do you enjoy doing outside of work? I have a wide array of interests, from music to going out to dinner to spending many days at our annual State Fair. All of these things I enjoy doing with my wife of 35 years and my family. The 9 grandkids have a way of making life very interesting. I am an avid Scuba Diver and enjoy doing underwater photography. I also still have the pleasure of playing on an organized softball team.

About Travis What do you love about working at Buerkle?
I’ve been at Buerkle Honda for since 2014 and am looking forward to many more years here – Buerkle is a great place to work. I love being able to sell a superior product in a brand new facility.
It makes my day knowing that when a customer buys a car here they’re getting into a safe, reliable vehicle. I also believe that knowing your product is very important, so when my customers leave the dealership I make sure they’re comfortable and knowledgeable driving their new car.
What do you enjoy doing outside of work?I grew up in White Bear Lake playing baseball and hockey so I’m still involved in sports. I also try to spend as much time as I can on the lake with family and friends.
