Most recently, Bishop was the assistant general manager at Manheim Fort Lauderdale.

While there, she helped create the South Florida Market Center, merging leadership and strategy between Manheim Fort Lauderdale and Manheim Palm Beach, and led the sales, operations, and vehicle entry departments.

She holds a bachelor’s degree from Wright State University and an MBA from Ashford University.

John Duplanty has been named general manager of Manheim Kansas City.

A 15-year member of the Manheim team, Duplanty began his career as operations manager at Manheim Tampa followed by general manager positions at Manheim Arizona and Manheim Tucson where he received the 2019 President's Award for “Auction of the Year.”
