Hi, I’m Jeff Bahnsen. I started my career detailing cars at 16 and later spent nearly eight years in customer service, building the foundation for how I work with people today. In 2019, I came to O’Daniel as a customer and was impressed by the no-pressure, relaxed environment—an experience that led me to join the team. I’m a proud husband and father of two, grateful to be part of the O’Daniel family, and I enjoy building long-term relationships while providing honest, dependable service. I’m here to help with any of your vehicle needs at O’Daniel Automart / Mazda.

Knowing that the purchase of your Toyota Highlander went smoothly, even after your drive down from MI, is truly rewarding. Jeff and Lauren are pleased they could guide the financing process and get you behind the wheel without any hassle. Thank you for recommending our dealership so highly, and enjoy your new Highlander on the road ahead.
