STEVE MANLEY
:: Chief Executive Officer
stevemanley@uaminc.com

One of the most widely known and respected professionals in the aviation aftermarket, Steve Manley is universally recognized as an industry expert. His combination of aftermarket industry knowledge and ability to apply intuitive solutions to complex asset dispositions has allowed Steve to become known throughout the commercial aviation industry as an effective problem solver. He is frequently asked to speak at industry conferences and to lead seminars and workshops at industry gatherings.

Steve attended Middle Tennessee State and Memphis State before starting his career at FedEx. Like most of his industry peers, he was exposed to several areas of maintenance and engineering throughout his tenure at FedEx. It didn't take him long to realize that his ability to find previously overlooked opportunities was unique and led him to create a brand of his own.

Steve founded Universal Asset Management, Inc, in 1993 on the premise of providing expert solutions to overcome a diverse commercial aviation asset disposition market and to establish long-term relationships with its clients and vendors. Undoubtedly realizing the success of his approach, Steve and UAM have become synonymous with "creative solutions." Universal Asset Management has disassembled over 175 airplanes and grown to a professional staff of over 50 people. Headquartered in Memphis, Tennessee, UAM has facilities in Atlanta, Denver and Arkansas totaling more than 150,000 square feet.
