Upon graduation from High School he enlisted in the US Navy and graduates from navy diving school. He completed a tour of duty in Vietnam and after an honorable discharge returned to Fort Wayne to attend college. After graduating from St Francis College he accepted a position in sales at Allen Bradley Company in Milwaukee and took his first sales assignment in St Louis a year later. He subsequently was promoted to sales management positions in Gary Indians and then the Northwest based in Seattle running that 5 state district. During these years Allen Bradley was purchased by Rockwell and this gave him an opportunity to accept a position as VP Sales Japan. The family moved to Tokyo in the early 90’s and a few years later relocated to Hong Kong as VP sales Asia Pacific for Rockwell Automation. Upon returning to the USA after 5 years in Asia he was appointed VP Marketing Reliance Motor group of Rockwell.
In the late 90’s he and a few other Rockwell executives received a contract to run Xycom Automation in Ann Arbor, Michigan which was being run by an investment group. When his contract was completed he was contacted by Veeder Root, a company within the Danaher Corporation based in Hartford, Connecticut. He was assigned as VP Sales North America and within a few years assisted in a large Merger with Gilbarco, a large petroleum pump manufacturer. He was assigned VP sales for the new company GVR and completed his 6 year contract with them in 2006. He is now onto his next adventure as owner of a boat canvas and upholstery business in Punta Gorda Florida where he lives full time with his wife Jewel.ver menos
