PAYNE AUTO GROUP - Key Persons
I have been part of the Payne Auto Group for 17 years, I obtained my Bachelor's in Business Administration at UTSA.
Being part of this business has been in my blood and I can't imagine doing anything else. I worked from Porter to now COO and being able to be part of the automotive industry has made me happier.
I am glad to be a part of my grandfather's legacy and hope to keep it going from what my grandfather built. Having the opportunity to make families grow together and be part of our Payne Family is something I wouldn't want to change.
Blake Bradley has held various positions at the Payne Auto Group for the past decade. He is currently the Director of Internet Operations, and helps provide direction for day to day advertising and internal operational processes. He enjoys learning new skills and putting together complex business strategies to combat a volatile industry. While not at work he enjoys keeping track of alternative hip-hop releases and watching art house films.
Payne is much more than an automotive business industry, it is what brings families together and help create new memories on the road. Being able to create something and have everyone feel closer together and being part of the Payne family is what Payne Auto Group is about. I love the fact that we are able to bring families together and the community that much more closer to each other.
