Debbie Lee - President Professionals Car Care
Meet Debbie Lee:
Debbie Lee’s career in the automotive industry started in 1981. She was 18 years old and caught in a dilemma on which basketball scholarship to accept. So with a hurt knee and no clear picture in front of her she answered an ad in the newspaper that read “lot boy wanted.”
She took the job and started her introduction into the industry. She has since spent 25 years in automotive. Debbie started out washing vehicles, learning inventory control, detailing vehicles, making deliveries and doing all the so-called “lot boy” jobs they could find. She LOVED it! So, as the wheel turns, Debbie moved through various jobs at that dealership learning all she could.
Three months later she was in management. Two years later, Debbie started her own detailing company, now known as Professionals Car Care, that provides detailing services to automotive and recreational vehicle dealerships throughout Orange County, Los Angeles County, and Riverside County. They clean an average of 5,000 vehicles per day in one form or another. Many of those vehicles are from clients they have served since 1983. They also provide cleaning services for many automotive and RV shows and events.
Debbie is very active in her community, environmental organizations and classes, continuing education and the daily hands-on running of her three companies. Along with Professionals Car Care Debbie also owns Compliance 1st Cleaning and Total Satisfaction, a line of private labeled detailing products that will be available summer 2006.
