As Manager of River Hills Mall, Debbie helps to create a safe, welcoming, and successful retail environment for tenants, customers, service providers, and the surrounding community. her role includes overseeing daily mall operations, coordinating with ownership, supporting tenant needs, assisting with local leasing opportunities, and helping bring community events into the mall’s common areas.

Debbie works closely with the team at Culpepper Real Estate Company to coordinate tenant compliance, building operations and maintenance, new construction projects, marketing, advertising, and leasing efforts. I am especially passionate about fostering community engagement by hosting local events and creating opportunities for businesses, schools, and organizations to connect with the public in a welcoming retail environment.

In 1992, she joined the mall’s management company as a consultant, preparing the annual operating budget, and was soon hired as Marketing Director. She was promoted to Assistant Manager under Transwestern Property Company.

When River Hills Mall was acquired by the Culpepper Real Estate family Debbie was retained and promoted to Property Manager, a role I continue to proudly serve in today. During a challenging period for the retail industry, we identified opportunities to support and lease to local businesses, ultimately achieving 97% occupancy at a time when many retail centers were struggling.

More recently, Culpepper Real Estate has expanded the mall’s corporate anchors, including JCPenney and Bealls, introduced new retailers such as Belk and EntertainMart, and is currently developing an Academy Sports + Outdoors scheduled to open in September 2026. She is proud to be part of a team that consistently brings growth, improvement, and opportunity to our community.

Outside the office, Debbie enjoys spending time with my family, enjoying outdoor activities and the beauty of the Hill Country is privileged to call home. She is blessed with four granddaughters, ages 7 through 20, a 25-year-old grandson, and a three-year-old grandson who is a true delight. Their accomplishments bring me immense pride and joy—they are each beautiful, inside and out.

Velma has been with Culpepper Realty for 23 years. She is the property manager for LaVillita Shopping Center in Alice, Texas. Velma works with tenants regarding leasing, repairs if needed, rental payments, and public input.

When not at work, Velma loves spending time with her 6 grandbabies (5 boys and 1 girl), glass painting and spoiling her dog Trixie.

Amanda is an Accounting Assistant at Culpepper Realty, she works with accounts payable, accounts receivable, percentage rent, and lease management. She enjoys working with numbers and takes pride in keeping everything accurate and organized. The Culpepper team relies on her to help manage tenant and vendor accounts efficiently and is always ready to take on whatever tasks come up each day.

Raised as an aggie, College Station has been home for most of Amanda’s life. She graduated from Texas A&M, class of 15’. Since then, she has worked in various roles including teaching, home real estate, Business Office within CSISD, and her hardest but most rewarding job as a stay-at-home mom. She brings a variety of experiences to the team from multiple different industries and integrates some of those ideas into what we do daily. Professionally, accounting is Amanda’s passion, and she is proud to do what she loves every day.

Outside of work, Amanda married her high school sweetheart, and they have been married for almost 10 years now. Together they have 2 sweet boys who are her whole world. She loves to run, and in October 2025 checked off a bucket list item after completing her first half marathon! This was the first of many. Amanda loves being spontaneous, creating memories and living life to the fullest. She is a proud Christian and tries to aspire to his word every day.

Krista is the first person you meet coming into or calling the office. She strives to fill in the gaps for everyone one else along with helping with lease and maintenance issues. She hasn’t met a holiday or celebration she doesn’t like and will show up to the office with food any chance she has.

Krista is a proud Aggie. When she and her husband finished at A&M they moved to North Carolina where she managed the office for a real estate broker. A few years later they moved to Colorado for her husband’s job, and she managed the office for the food company TR Toppers and helped them to build process and company culture as they grew. She took a few years off when she had her two boys and then went to work for Keller ISD for nearly a decade as a PEIMS Coordinator and wore a lot of hats for a Title 1 school. Prior to joining Culpepper Realty, she managed a national sales tax firm for 7 years helping large clients navigate the labyrinth of sales tax.

Krista has been married to Lance for 33 years, and has two sons and one great daughter in law. She has a yellow lab named Gus, and over 30 chickens. She has lives on a small farm, and has too many hobbies to mention, but loves photography, her out of control cookbook collection and cooking when not in her ridiculously large garden.

This one is kind of long, but we can put it in there. He is going to redo his normal bio for what he does here, and I can edit that once we get that after we launch. I didn’t want to hold things up any further.
