Summary

I started in the oilfield in February of 1980 for TretOLite in Hill City Kansas on a treating truck applying oilfield production chemicals for oil wells in north central Kansas. I worked for TretOLite for 5 years and then went into Sales in March of 1985 for Chem Serv in the Plainville Kansas selling oilfield production chemicals and within 6 months Baker Oil Treating bought out Chem Serv.

From 1985 to April of 2008 Baker Oil Treating's name changed to Baker Performance Chemicals to Baker Petrolite and I was a Salesman, warehouse foreman, treating truck driver and then was a Account Manager again in the process.

April 14 2008 I went to work for Multi Chem and was hired as a Account Manager and in November 2015 I was promoted to Area Manager and then Halliburton promoted me to a Service Coordinator until October 23 of 2018 where they closed our facility down.

I have 38 years of oilfield experience in Management, Sales, Planning and developing and implementing truck treating routes, financials and leadership roles in the oilfield.
