Summary

From the shop floor to sales, I’ve seen it all. Starting as a saw cutter and working my way up to an Account Executive, I’ve gained a deep understanding of the packing and crating world—every role, every challenge, every opportunity. My hands-on experience allows me to connect with customers in a way that goes beyond sales; I know the ins and outs of what they need because I’ve done the work myself.

Beyond my industry expertise, I bring an energetic, out-of-the-box approach to problem-solving and communication. Whether working with a team or engaging clients, my goal is simple: understand people, add value, and create solutions that make a difference. Passionate about innovation and teamwork, I’m always open to new opportunities—including the chance to bring my skills into the sports world one day!
