Windish RV Center, Colorado’s #1 towable dealership, on Thursday announced several leadership changes that reinforce a new generation of leaders and strengthen the Windish family legacy.
Under president and owner Carolyn Windish Irwin, Windish RV, based in Lakewood, has solidified itself as a leader in the industry and expanded to three locations in Colorado.
Focusing on the future, Windish RV has announced Corey Shaw has been promoted to general manager and Whitney Holtz has joined the organization as vice president of operations.
Shaw has 16 years of experience in the RV industry. He joined the Windish sales team in 2006 and was the sales manager at the Lakewood location before his promotion to general manager. In his new role as general manager, Shaw will oversee operations across all three Windish RV locations. He is a native of Colorado, an avid camper and holds a bachelor’s degree in marketing from University of Wyoming.
As vice president of operations, Holtz, will oversee day-to-day operations to support the continued growth of Windish RV. She is a Colorado native and the granddaughter of Dale Windish, founder of Windish RV.
Before joining Windish RV she worked in marketing and communications strategy for TTEC, a global leader in customer experience technology and services.
Holtz began her career in consulting valuing the media rights of sports franchises and media properties before moving to Chicago to manage ticket operations for the Chicago Cubs. She holds a bachelor’s degree in business from Trinity University and a master’s in finance and marketing from the University of Denver.
“It is the people at Windish RV that make us great,” said Carolyn Windish Irwin. “Corey and Whitney embody and subscribe to that belief. Together they represent the future of Windish and will help us continue to grow the business and our involvement in the Colorado community.”
Carolyn Windish Irwin assumed the role of president and owner in 1995 after her father and Windish RV founder, Dale Windish passed away. Since then, Windish RV has grown to three locations, opening the Longmont store in 2009 and then the Colorado Springs store in 2017. Windish RV prides itself on being a family business and keeping family at the center of everything it does.
As an active member of the Colorado community, Windish RV is proud to support several local groups including Denver Urban Scholars, Sense of Security and The Action Center.
