Alex Villafranca
CEO, Co-Founder & Head of RevenueAlex is the CEO, co-founder and Head of Revenue at Arbeit, a better outbound communication software that makes debt collection agencies more profitable. Alex worked in the collection industry prior to founding Arbeit, first as an agent and then as an agency owner, and saw a need for a dialer that was easier to use and more powerful than what he could find. Now, Arbeit is in its ninth year of business, offering 3 products built for collection agencies, and more on the way. When he is not nerding out with the rest of the team at Arbeit, Alex is working on his golf apparel company, Verde, or training for another marathon.

AP joined Arbeit as the Office Manager, was later promoted to Director of Administration and Human Resources, and is currently Arbeit’s Chief Operating Officer. AP oversees the operations at Arbeit, always looking for ways to improve Arbeit’s processes and culture, ensuring that the right metrics are focused on to reach company goals. Buffalo born and raised, AP is known for always having an iced latte within reach, and spends her time away from Arbeit eating at her favorite brunch spot or building Lego masterpieces with her son.

In 2020, she was promoted to Product Manager and built Arbeit’s product team from the ground up to what it is today, where she oversees it as Director of Product. In her free time she can be found in the garden caring for her houseplants, road-tripping across the US or nerding out on the VR and space travel!
