Since 1999, I have been involved in the rep/agency side of the commercial and industrial lighting industry primarily in the customer service, inside sales, quotations and project management arenas. I have worked for three agencies following the Cooper Lighting Company as well as the many ancillary lines of the three agencies. Prior to that time, I spent about ten years as a Speedway convenience store manager and another ten or so years as the owner/operator of two Exxon service stations and co-owner of a Marathon service station. Shortly after the demise of the lighting agency I was working at I was blessed to become a part of the Wiseway Supply team in the Florence headquarters in August of 2017.I have spent many years along the way in voluntary ministry arenas such as preaching, personal evangelism training, discipleship training, director of small home groups, director of senior adult ministries, and church treasurer. I have been married since 1977 to my loving wife and have a wonderful son and daughter-in-law. God has certainly been good to me!
