Summary

Having spent the past 40 years in corporate sales, I will be retiring in August 2023 and am looking for a full or part-time job in the service industry to interact with people. My biggest strength as both a Account Manger and Sales Manager was my ability to forge personal relationships with both my sales team and our corporate clients.

I believe this strength will be very useful as I enter this new phase in my life.

Musician, avid golfer

I am a self taught guitarist who took up the instrument during the pandemic.  Guitar brings me great joy while playing together with my wife or for friends at parties.
