Southland Team

Ansley Hegman

Ansley Hegman grew up in Atlanta and entered the car business right out of high school, working as the loaner car coordinator with her uncle at a local dealership. She quickly advanced to service advisor at another dealership as she learned more about cars and the business, and then brought her excellent customer service skills to us in 2002. She started as a service advisor at Catherine’s Piedmont, and now works part-time between the two shops as customer service manager and manager of anything and everything that needs to be taken care of! She and her husband, David, have two sons, Tyler and Carson.

Jason Clouse

Jason Clouse is a Master ASE and L1 (advanced engine performance) certified technician who has always liked cars, having tinkered with them even as a young boy with his father. He worked for Ford in high school in Colorado, then went to college for mechanical engineering at the University of Texas. He worked in race shops and built race cars after college before finally settling in Atlanta with a career as an auto tech. He lives here now with his wife Belinda and two daughters Alex and Mattie. He joined the Catherine’s team in 2008 and we are glad to have his engineer mind and problem-solving abilities with us!

Ibro Feriz

Ibro Feriz grew up in Sarajevo, Bosnia but moved to Switzerland under refugee status when the war started. He began to learn about cars there as a teenager simply because he enjoyed it, but then decided to pursue that passion further. For three years he participated in a Chrysler/Jeep school and work program, and then worked on cars for another two years back in Bosnia before moving to Atlanta in 2002. He started working at Catherine’s in 2003 but left in 2005 to focus on bringing his family to the U.S. It took many years and visits to Bosnia but he was finally successful, and he is thrilled to have his wife Elhama and daughter Selma here with him! He is a conscientious and knowledgeable technician and we were very happy to welcome him back to our team again in 2010.

Danielle McDonald

Danielle McDonald originally began working on his own car just to save himself some money, and then discovered that he really liked it. So after college he worked for several years at different tire stores where he earned certifications in alignments, brakes, steering and suspension. He started with Catherine’s in April 2010 as a mechanic apprentice and shop porter. He always has a great attitude and is happy to help wherever he is needed. He says he has always lived in Georgia, and loves his wife, Sherri, and his three sons – Makai, Chaz, and Dante.
