I have had a career in wholesale distribution for several decades and still have a drive and passion for it. I enjoy meeting new people as well as nurturing on going professional relationships. I was with a very large corporation for quite sometime, which enabled me to quickly learn the skills required to maintain a thriving sales territory. Having worked for a couple of smaller wholesalers as well as running them, I have learned that it's not always what you have, it's what you do with it. My customers generally become friends with a sales call becoming a positive experience for all that are involved. I am a easy to get along with team member as well as team builder.

I am also the founder of Clause With a Cause, which is a charitable organization that I established in 2010. I have been blessed with some Santalike phyisical traits, that I have used to help others. Via a wide array on Santa appearances, I have been able to acquire funds to help out the the less fortunate in our community. For further information please go to clause4acause.org.
