A child of the industry, Tucker grew up in her father’s dealership, giving her a deep-rooted passion and understanding of the automotive world.

She spearheaded sales growth across the Midwest, managing over 250 accounts, including for OEMs, single-point stores, and dealerships. Her understanding of the market and products allowed her to develop customized solutions, and her time at the industry titan also includes experience as a product specialist.

In the new role, Tucker will spearhead development of partnerships with external agents and partners, supporting their success and facilitating the integration process. She will take on the training and education of AutoPayPlus partners, helping them leverage the company’s services.
