Over the past two years, Savage and her team beat operational efficiency goals and delivered double-digit customer experience scores. During her tenure at Manheim Palm Beach, she held two of the most successful One Hundred Grander Sales in its history, including the sale of a 2008 Bugatti Veyron for $1 million, the highest-selling auction vehicle on record for Manheim. Prior to her position as assistant general manager, she served as director of best practices for Manheim Digital, and held roles as manager of online training and sales executive for OVE.com. In addition to completing a variety of leadership workshops and training, Savage holds a Bachelor of Arts in Education from the University of Mississippi.
