Spotlights: Carlos Sandoval
Bio: I was born and raised in Phoenix, AZ. I received a Bachelor's of Science in Business Management from Arizona State University, W.P. Carey School of Business. During the fall semester of 2003, I interned at Five Star Ford of Scottsdale. It was this internship that allowed me hands on experience in the fast pace dealership environment and solidified my career interest to become a dealer principal. Aside from interning at Five Star Ford of Scottsdale, some previous work experience I have is an INROADS intern. I participated in a four year summer-only internship with Cintas Corporation. During my four years in college, I worked as a teller for Bank of America. While at Arizona State University, I was very involved with school and the community. Clubs and organizations I was a part of include: Active member of Omega Delta Phi Fraternity, Inc., Doran's Community Scholars Program and Dealership Management Student Associations. Some hobbies I enjoy include exercising, running, reading, and spending time with my family. I also speak Spanish. I am currently working as a Dealership Management Trainee at Bartow Ford in Bartow, FL.
