Summary
I am interested in opportunities that would benefit from my background in automotive and heavy-duty trucking parts sales and operations. With over 30 years of experience managing parts departments, developing teams, and improving operational performance, I bring a strong mix of leadership, technical knowledge, and customer-focused execution. I have overseen all aspects of parts operations, including employee development, financial analysis, inventory management, and vendor relations. My experience working with both customers and suppliers has also given me a strong ability to build lasting, trust-based relationships.
