Born and raised in Bogota, Colombia, Carol moved to Colorado at the age of 15 and quickly secured a job at an auto parts store. After several years in the automotive industry (including with xTime), Carol accepted an opportunity with Schomp Automotive in 2018 as the Corporate Training Manager. Schomp only had four stores at that time. Carol played an integral part in the process implementation for all Fixed Ops-related tasks, including our Service BDC, during the addition of our next eight rooftops. After graduating from the NCM General Manager Academy, Carol was ready to move on from her role as the Corporate Fixed Operations Director and take on the challenge of opening Volkswagen of Fairfield with Fairfield Automotive Partners. She is ASE-Certified, has been published in Fixed Ops Magazine, and was named in Automotive News’s 40 Under 40. Carol is a true champion of the industry and an inspiring female leader.

Hello! My name is Chris Castro. I grew up in the suburbs of Denver, playing baseball through high school and college. Before joining the Schomp Automotive Group, I worked in corporate finance, providing growth capital for local businesses throughout the Denver Metro area. After working for Schomp in Highlands Ranch, I moved to Utah to start working at the Mercedes-Benz of Farmington store out there. Now, I am happy to be opening Schomp’s newest Volkswagen store in California! I’m excited to offer you the incredible “One Price. One Person. One Hour.” philosophy that our group embodies.

In my free time, I enjoy brewing my own beer, exploring everything California has to offer, and spending time with my family.

I would love to assist you in your search. Please e-mail me directly at any time with any inquiry.

Lisa was born and raised in the Bay Area. She started her career in the Automotive industry right out of High School and has never looked back. Lisa has done almost every job in Parts and Service except for technician (she says they didn’t trust her with tools). Lisa moved to Solano County in 1990 to open a new store in Vacaville and start her family. She’s raised two amazing kids – her son is a Vallejo Fireman, and her daughter has also worked in the car business and the insurance industry. Lisa has been a Service Manager for about 20 years, and she loves the daily challenges and the fast pace of the service department.

Hi, my name is James and I am from California. I joined the automotive industry in 1997 coming out of school. My dream car is a Bentley Bentayga because of its luxury, style, and comfort. Outside of work, I enjoy traveling with my family, trying new delicious food, watching my daughters play volleyball, bowling, and of course, anything automotive! Speed, efficiency, and communication is what I appreciate as a person and as a customer, so that is the type of service I strive to provide our customers to receive. A team passionate about what they do is the team you can expect from us!
