Bio Coming.
Describe your job.
I lead our group of 5 – Regional Sales Manager. As a team of six, I constantly give back the knowledge I have learned about our business and listen to the experiences that others have had in previous careers to make our group cohesive and transparent. We use our expertise, knowledge and geographic locations to support our local rep agencies to deliver the best customer service and solutions we have available.
What makes you the right fit for this roll?
I have spent more than half of my career at DIS-TRAN crisscrossing the country attending various tradeshows & industry events, seeking out new & old customers and being involved in some of the largest projects built in North America. I say this has been the “best half” of my career because I really enjoy my team here, and the value our products and services deliver. The DIS-TRAN name is a flagship business in the industry for delivering on our commitment and not over promising seeking the impossible. Our team is known for going above and beyond for our customers. DIS-TRAN Packaged Substations’ Factory-Built Substations (FBS) and Pre-Fabricated Bus (PFB) are the next evolution to the way substations are built. I’ve been part of our team’s growth and helped introduce FBS & PFB to the market. DIS-TRAN proves that if you have the right product and the right people, you can achieve anything.
What are you most passionate about?
I am most passionate about helping people and problem-solving. I enjoy bringing together the right team of people and the right resources to deliver solutions.
What problems do you consistently solve for your clients?
The missing piece… often times people try to do it all themselves. Customers are no exception. They are humans too and sometimes find they are having the same issues over and over because they are trying to do it all. They often try to save money by not using someone like us but end up spending more. I try to educate customers on “services” that we do that will alleviate burdens on them. I am a do it all myself type person too, so I can relate to customers who have the same mindset.
