Decisive and driven, she enjoys managing the many different parts of the operation and loves that all team members are fully empowered with the ability to advocate for the customer and the company. Amber believes that to succeed, you need to show up, work hard, and go above and beyond. Anyone who knows her will tell you she does that every day.

Armando Villarreal (McAllen Auto Sales – McAllen)
Armando is the founder and CEO of McAllen Auto Sales since 1995. He has grown the business from a one-man operation to a flourishing business with 33 employees and 3 locations. His current responsibilities include maintaining a steady inventory of cars and making sure his employees stay in compliance. He believes in the importance of compliance because no amount of business experience or car sales will keep a business going if the lack of compliance shuts down the business.
