    General Manager

    Move over Bobby Orr, there's a new GOAT in town! Meet Dana Lewis, our General Manager at Kia of Dartmouth. The Greatest of All Time on any team not only fields the most difficult challenges, but also brings out the best in those around him- this is no less true of Dana. For Dana, it's all about family. He works hard to promote a welcoming environment for employees and customers alike, establishing a solid rapport for the long term. While Dana
    emphasizes that each team member is responsible for the group's success, he also enjoys watching growth within the dealership: employees being promoted, his staff developing professionally and personally, getting married, having children, buying their first home. Their growth stems from the job they do at the dealership, and Dana takes much pride in helping them achieve their goals, and that he can provide the opportunity for them.

    Dana's customers describe him as understanding, compassionate, and gracious. Dana works tirelessly to ensure his customers' needs are met. He is always willing to go above and beyond to get the task done, whether it's making a phone call to get that specific vehicle for a customer or securing financing with the banks for clients with a challenging credit history.

    This is a family business, and Dana intends to keep it that way. Kia of Dartmouth's reputation and customer relationships are of the utmost importance because he expects the dealership to continue serving you through the generations.

    Outside of the office, family is no less important! Dana and his wife never miss their children's sports games-or the opportunity to host a cookout for the neighborhood kids. Dana lets loose playing hockey for the local men's league or going on a date night with his leading lady. The whole family enjoys spending time with their cavapoo Marshy, who has become the showroom
    mascot here at Kia of Dartmouth!

    Dana's committed leadership is what informs the values of our dealership, and we couldn't be more proud to have him as our General Manager. To schedule an appointment with him, please call 866-856-4104 and ask for Dana Lewis.

     Meet the man, the myth, the legend - David DeOliveira.

    🥇 "The man" needs no introduction at all; his extensive list of awards speaks for him. His achievements are so impressive that his awards create awards for him.
    🙌🏻 🏆2020 Platinum Award (KIA's most prestigious award) and Hawaii Award (Awarded to the "Elite" of Platinum Award recipients)
    🏆2019 Platinum (KIA's most prestigious award), Top 100 in the NATION, #1 in District
    🏆2016 - 2018 Gold Awards 🙌🏻
    👀 Between his stellar list of awards, his roster of clients, and record-breaking performance, it's no wonder that David is a most esteemed Sales Advisor at KIA of Dartmouth. 👀
    🤝 When it comes to exceptional customer care, look no further. David handles each day like a BOSS! From the moment he steps into the showroom, he skillfully manages every aspect of the sales and lease process for his customers. Each customer experience is carefully crafted to meet their needs, likes, wants, and price. That's why David's customers keep coming back year after year. His referral list is so long there's a waiting list to see him.
    🚘 With five years at KIA of Dartmouth, he has been an integral part of the growth and the evolution of the dealership. He has helped friends, family, and the community by navigating their car shopping journey with the utmost care and precision. This level of customer service has earned David an award reserved only for the elite in the business, which is the prestigious and coveted Hawaiian trip award. 🏝

    🍔🌭 When David is away from the showroom, he is at the family table sharing stories and laughs with loved ones. Being a grill master is one of David's many talents, so of course, the family dinner is prepared by no other than "the man." On his day off, David loves to safely pack the family and pets in the family Sportage and hit the road for spontaneous explorations and adventures. 🐶 🛶 🏕

  • Keith Brady
    Sales & Leasing Consultant
    508-999-2542 x2015

    Meet Keith Brady; the verdict is still out on whether Keith is the Tom Brady or Rocky Balboa of Kia of Dartmouth! Between his constant desire to be a leader, his win-win approach, and his "go the distance" attitude, he has shown to be one of the most outstanding sellers in the dealership. Some would say he is the perfect underdog story of the guy that managed to take the belt when as a rookie in sales, the odds of being "the best" seemed a distance away.
    🚘 Keith is the type of salesperson that quarterbacks every transaction of the car buying process for his customers. He is described as a straightforward, helpful, and resourceful person. His customers often comment on how comfortable they feel because, like a true champion, they know Keith will go the extra yard to get them the financing they couldn't get elsewhere. Keith puts on "the gloves" for his customers and enters the ring to handle payment and transaction protocols on their behalf to ensure the completion of their pay-off, so they can seamlessly drive off in their new vehicle from Kia of Dartmouth.
    🏈 Keith is a sports enthusiast and huge fan of the Pat's, Red Sox, and Celtics. When he isn't watching a sports game, Keith is at the dog park with his three canine kids; Frankie, Myla, and Brooklyn. In the evening, Keith is a man about town, hitting up the "Foodie" scene in Providence, Downtown Newport, and a couple of his favorite spots in Bristol County. As the dog days of summer approach, Keith looks forward to afternoons playing whiffle ball and enjoying warm summer nights with family and friends.
    🥇 With three years under his belt in the automotive industry, Keith has achieved more than most sellers achieve in a decade. Be it for buying or leasing; customers know that they can count on Keith to help them make the best decision based on their lifestyle and budget. That level of customer service that he provides to each customer has been of paramount importance in his journey. We're thrilled to have Keith on our team, and we're sure you will be too. To schedule an appointment call 866-856-4104 and ask for Keith Brady!

  • David Viveiros
    Service Manager
    508-999-2542 x2036

    Meet David Viveiros, Our mastermind of operations. David is a KIA Master Certified professional that proudly sports a truly amazing beard with talents that equal its size. His achievements with this company have been more than notable, which is why his customers and their families continue to service their vehicles at Kia of Dartmouth for the life of the vehicle; some say it's the beard; we tend to think it's the whole package.
    Given his ability to ensure customer satisfaction by overseeing all aspects of service, parts, and reconditioning departments, he has always been the type of person who prides himself on out-of-the- box strategies. He also understands the importance of building a like-minded team that follows the customer-oriented environment and exceptional work practices that David enforces with impeccable ethics.
    A Kia of Dartmouth veteran, David has been involved in the automotive industry for 24 years, and this journey has led to KIA's Platinum Prestige Awards in 2019 and 2020. It is inspiring to see that while David continues to be an outstanding example of excellence here at KIA of Dartmouth, he has also served his community selflessly for over 14 years as an accomplished and seasoned paramedic for the Emergency Medical Service.
    We're unsure if David's masterful skills come straight out of his beard, so if you haven't seen it yet, don't fret, it's unlikely that he will be without it any time soon.
    When David isn't safeguarding his customers' vehicles at Kia of Dartmouth or modeling his beard, he is with his family. Quality time with family is an essential part of David's life, and with his wife and four children vying for his time, David knows he must orchestrate his time wisely. Mission accomplished with family game and movie nights! To David, there's nothing better than enjoying video games with his kids and an occasional horror movie with his wife.
    With more than 24 years of experience in the repair and service sectors of the industry, rest assured that your vehicle is in the safest of hands. David will go to lengths equal to his famed beard to ensure that his customers get what they want, and he will exceed expectations to give them what they need - all to help them save money and time.
    We're thrilled to have David on our team, and we're sure you will be too. To schedule an appointment with David, call 866-856-4104 and ask for David Viveiros.

    BD Agent
    508-999-2542 x2017

    Meet Jessica, one of the unseen magicians behind your computer screen. Around the dealership, we like to call her "blitz" because she is as quick on her feet as she is with her fingertips as she vigorously responds to every inquiry that enters the Kia of Dartmouth inbox.
    👩‍💻 Jessica works diligently to ensure the needs of every online inquiry are met with the highest of standards. Whether searching for that specific Kia you've been dreaming of, setting an appointment to finally get behind the wheel and take your dream machine for a test drive, or to prequalify for credit, Jess is busily working behind the scenes making the magic happen.
    She has managed to help customers near and far find the perfect vehicle for their lifestyle and budget. Like her customer Jan from Attleboro. Jan had totaled her vehicle and needed immediate transportation but was denied credit from other lenders. Jessica waved her wand and not only got Jan approved for financing, but she also worked the numbers with management so Jan could drive off in the exact vehicle she wanted. No compromises or delays, just a seamless and straightforward process is what you will find while working with Jessica.
    This is the reason why her customers have often described her as a "ball of energy."
    🐾 When she is not behind the blue screen at work, you will find this super-mom of 3 spending quality time with her daughters, taking her girls and their pooch Bella to the local dog park, and cooking up family recipes in the kitchen. She also enjoys letting her feet loose on the dance floor with her friends from time to time.
    🎉 With two years of experience at KIA of Dartmouth answering phones, setting appointments, and handling an array of online inquiries, all while maintaining her spunky personality, we've come to rely on her ability to get the job done for our customers. We're thrilled to have Jessica on our team, and we're sure you will be too. To schedule an appointment with her, call 866-856-4104 and ask for Jessica Dussault.
