PROFILE
I am a dedicated and motivated
individual that can work solo or great in a
team atmosphere. I have years of
experience in management and task
delegation, I would be a huge asset to any
company.
Being in the automotive industry at the
dealership management level has taught
me many skills. I’ve have managed multi-
million-dollar finance departments in
several dealerships as well as coached up
other managers and salespeople. In
addition to this I never lost touch with my
roots.
I have extensive experience in design
anywhere from concept all the way
through to prototype fabrication. I am
very hands on and have never been afraid
to get my hands dirty or pick up a wrench.
Growing up in an auto racing family, gave
me the ability to deal with time crunch
problem solving as well as time
management and leadership.
Hobbies:
In my free time I enjoy Golf, Dirt Track Auto
Racing and life on the Lake in Okauchee.

ACQUIRED SKILLS & EXPERIENCE
Prior to getting my Mechanical Engineering degree, I have over 15 years of management and sales experience working as a finance director in the auto industry.
Strong knowledge of SolidWorks as I spent my full internship working within SolidWorks 2019 daily. My role consisted of expanding our CAD library, converting 2D drawings to 3D models, and using the configuration manager to create multiple versions of existing parts in our library. AutoCAD and CREO 2.0 and 3.0 as well as Creo Simulate, hundreds of hours of design time with 2d and 3d modeling between them both. Extensive math experience with school as well as accounting skills managing hundreds of thousands of dollars in loans every month during my years as a finance manager.
Very strong personal communication skills which included full sales presentations to car sales prospects, objection handling and final closing of deals. These skills teamed with my engineering background makes me an ideal candidate for a sales engineer role.
