  • Lisa Clemons
    Finance Consultant
    (858) 549-6076

    Lisa joined Audi San Diego in March 2020-literally the day before the world hit pause. But even a global shutdown couldn't dim her enthusiasm. Drawn by the reputation of Holman and the glowing reviews from colleagues, she jumped in with both feet and never looked back.

    Her favorite part of the Audi brand? The seamless blend of performance and luxury-just like a perfect wine pairing, which she knows a thing or two about. When she's not helping clients find their dream car, you'll likely find Lisa in her kitchen hosting wine dinners, or off the grid somewhere, trading stories by a campfire with a view that beats any Wi-Fi signal.

  • Don Bragg
    Audi Brand Specialist
    (855) 971-8832

    My first Audi was a 2006 A4. I have been an Audi owner ever since!
    The cars are great, the service has always been the best, and seeing Audi leading the industry with new designs, technologies, and more - I decided to join Audi over 12 years ago.
    Today I enjoy assisting new clients, families and friends. I visit with my previous clients returning for service and shopping for new Audi models as they also enjoy their great cars.

    I take pride in always providing fantastic service and am here to assist and answer any questions. Drop by and say hello when you are here, or make an appointment so that I may assist you.

  • Ruben Guzman
    Audi Brand Specialist
    (858) 549-6069

    Ruben joined Audi San Diego in September 2024, bringing with him six years of experience in luxury automotive and a passion for cutting-edge vehicles. Referred by a trusted colleague, Ruben made the move from Acura to Audi to stay at the forefront of automotive innovation and deliver the best in design, performance, and technology.

    For Ruben, Audi isn't just a brand-it's a lineup of personality-packed machines, each with its own distinct edge, from the punchy 4-cylinder to the legendary V10 R8. That combination of sportiness, sound, and style is what fuels his enthusiasm every day.

    Outside of the showroom, Ruben soaks up the San Diego sun golfing at Torrey Pines or Coronado, hitting hiking trails, enjoying the La Jolla coast, and spending quality time with friends and family.

With a deep appreciation for Audi's elegant and timeless design, Rick enjoys helping clients find a vehicle that will look just as stunning five years from now as it does today.

    When he's not guiding customers through their next Audi adventure, Rick enjoys kicking back with great music on his HiFi system or heading outdoors with his German Shepherd for a hike or a trip to the local dog park.

    For David, it's not just about performance or tech-it's about sharing the Audi experience with people who love great cars.

    Off the clock, Jose enjoys exploring with his wife and kids, and whenever he can carve out the time, hitting the mountain trails on his bike.

    When he's not at the dealership, Neal's favorite role is being "Dad." His best days are spent with his son-playing games, reading books, or laughing through a good movie together.
