Michael "Dale" Santus Business Development Manager
Dale's career with Specialty Sales began in 2006 when he decided to leave the financial planning industry. His extensive experience and diverse background positions him perfectly to provide our clients the highest level of customer service. Dale is the "Go-To" guy and most likely the voice you'll hear answering the telephone.
Dale is a native Philadelphian, having grown up in the suburbs of Philadelphia, PA. In 1995 he decided that he had had enough of the snow and ice and that California was the place for him. During his free time Dale enjoys traveling and doating on his dog, a Jack Russell Terrier/Dachshund mix named Marley that he rescued during one of his annual trips to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico.
Dale has owned 26 cars. His current driver is a 2000 Mercedes Benz SL500. He has his eyes on a Porsche C4S.
Rory Marin
Service Manager - Benicia
An avid sports car enthusiast, Rory brought life long experience with him when he joined Specialty Sales in 2008 as our Service Manager. Fast cars and classics have always been a passion of his. He has participated in racing venues beginning long ago with the Fremont drags to the SCCA Solo II Nationals event in Topeka, Kansas. Rory has been active in "corvetting" for over 15 years, having held the office of President of the Discovery Bay Corvettes Club, judging car shows including Concourse, and racing. Among his gallery of racing trophies, Rory and his wife also have trophies for "Cleanest Trunk" and "Best Seats". His attention to detail is spot on. When not at Specialty Sales, you can find Rory autocrossing his '64 Corvette.
Jared Kelly
Sales/Internet Marketing - Benicia
With a degree in Computer Science and a love for classic cars, Jared is a perfect fit at Specialty Sales. Since joining the team in 2007 he has continued to bring new ideas and interactive features to the website and launched the company into High Definition.
When he is not working on his '69 Riviera' or his 72 Opel GT you might find him playing Texas Hold’em or tossing around a Frisbee with his dog RayDar.
This Bay Area native’s quick wit and off the cuff humor are one of a kind. Standing at 6ft 5in tall, please try not to laugh when he is taking a customer out in a Lotus or MG.
