Summary

I have worked in the heating and air conditioning industry my entire career. Owning and operating an HVAC Company from 1985 to 2010 and selling my company in 2010. While owning the company we focused on residential and commercial HVACR, including geothermal heating and cooling, hydronics and forced air solutions. I developed a reputation in my community as honest, hard working and reliable. After selling my company, I worked with a local distributor to help with the start up of a geothermal division. I have worked as a Territory Manager for two manufactures and developed great relationships with my dealer base. I have an extensive back ground in both the contracting and the distribution side of the heating and air conditioning business as well as strong technical, sales and design experience.
