I’ve been in the car business my whole life, but I’ve been working full-time at Oak Lawn Toyota as the Internet Manager since August, 2006.
I am married to my wonderful husband, DJ and we have a beautiful daughter, Carmela.
My first car was a Chevrolet Blazer!
My favorite vehicle we offer here at Oak Lawn Toyota is a Toyota Sienna because it drives like a luxury automobile, every door opens with a button, and it is so spacious!
I love snow skiing, photography, speaking Italian, eating and cooking Italian food, drinking wine, and spending time with my family.
My favorite movie is The Godfather Part II.
My favorite band is Wilco.
My favorite television show is Breaking Bad, The Real Housewives of Orange County, New Jersey, and Beverly Hills.
My favorite food is Fresh Tomato “Summer Sauce” with Spaghetti.
One interesting fact about myself is that I LOVE CATS! I grew up with two cats, Taffy & Tiger, who lived over 20 years, and I now have a cat, Grado, who I found in a gutter and has now become a part of our family.

How long I’ve been in the car business: Since birth.
How long I’ve been with Oak Lawn Toyota: I grew up on Oak Lawn Toyota’s showroom floor. My sisters (Elizabeth Phelps, Victoria Hampton, Diana Huber) and I would go to work with our dad (Ronnie Colosimo) on Saturdays. My earliest memories at Oak Lawn Toyota include answering the phones and counting change for the cashier.
Family: I am the third daughter of Ronnie Colosimo. I live in Chicago with my precious pup Riggs.
My first car was: Red Toyota Corolla
My favorite vehicle we offer and why: The Toyota 4Runner is the best vehicle in our lineup. It has a spacious interior and cargo area; it is high up off the ground which makes for a pleasant driving experience; and it’s a great-looking SUV.
My hobbies: Long walks exploring the city of Chicago with my dog, cooking, snow skiing, and practicing yoga/pilates.
Favorite movie: It’s a tie- Network & Clueless
