CARY, N.C. –

Perhaps you could call Veronica Tai a solutions superhero.

“My proudest moments are always hearing clients talk about experiences I’ve built and how they couldn’t live without them,” said Tai.

In her role as senior product manager, Tai is responsible for finding and purchasing inventory thought Manheim’s digital platforms, including Manheim.com, OVE.com, Simulcast and Simulcast Everywhere.

“I’m fortunate to work on initiatives that tie disparate experiences together and really change how our clients use our digital platforms to find and purchase inventory,” she said.  “The best part of my job is refreshing, evolving and combining together elements of our sites to enable our clients to work faster, better, smarter.”

Tai very much enjoys being part of an evolving industry, but in the end, it’s “all about the people,” she said.

“I know whenever I’m talking with team members or clients alike, they are going to give me the real deal and not mince words, and we are going to laugh about some crazy stories,” Tai said.

When asked about whom she admires professionally, Tai cited Joe George, Amy Mills and Grace Huang as being among those who have mentored and inspired her throughout her career.

Veronica Tai, 38, is senior product manager at Manheim.
