As our Relationship Manager, Darleen is your personal connection to an automotive experience unlike any other. With her expert knowledge, she will put you into the car of your dreams. She is here to listen to you and create an experience that is rooted in quality and tailor-made to exceed your expectations.
Darleen was born and raised in the “San Fernando Valley” along with her two sisters. Her career in retail began at the age of 15 when she stopped by to visit a friend who was working at a clothing store nearby. The store was extremely busy for the holiday season and the store manager asked if she’d like to work a seasonal shift. She left 13-years later after holding the positions of Store Manager, District Manager, and Director of Training & Development and Director of Visual Merchandising for 250 locations and over 500 associates.
After spending 23 years in the retail industry, Darlene decided that she wanted a change and in 2000 she accepted a position with House of Imports assisting the Fixed Operations Department. Within a few years she made the transition into the sales department.
Working alongside House of Imports General Manager, Pat Lustig, Darleen currently oversees the Maybach & SLR Divisions, manages Customer Relations and the New Car Inventory for the dealership.
Darleen and her husband have been residents of Orange County, California for the past 18 years. They have two beautiful children. She and her husband are involved with their children in high school and multiple sports activities and have committed their time and energy to celebrate who they are and support what they do everyday.
Darleen says “I truly enjoy what I do each day and most of all, I’ve enjoyed the relationships that I have made over the years and look forward to making many friends in the future.”
