West Columbia, South Carolina

I work with key accounts in SC and throughout the Southeastern US to help them better manage their heavy equipment fleets for improved uptime, performance and reduced long-term cost of ownership (equity growth). We accomplish this through a comprehensive approach which leverages experience, global sales contacts and superior marketing capabilities/techniques.

Lexington, Sc

I enjoyed working with several thousand of the worlds best logging and forest products companies to help them source top-quality forest machines for their operations. Over the years we developed a process of evaluation, service, repair and remarketing that was industry leading.

I worked to serve clients both in the US and internationally to find quality used forestry machines and deliver them globally. We specialize in late model, newer, production machines that are ready to work. Being a CAT, Prentice, Hydro-Ax, Peterson Pacific dealer gives us access to fresh one-owner trade-ins. We also are a used remarketing clearing house for bank reposessions and lease turn-ins. In addition to my sales responsibilities I have redesigned our website and enhance our online marketing efforts. I built an inventory database that has automated our ad distribution process, creating data feeds with online advertisers and updating our listings automatically in real time. I was given the opportunity to oversee much of our marketing effort since arriving in 2005, including our website design, layout and search engine optimization efforts.

Columbia, Sc

Worked with Architects, Engineers, Contractors and Company Owners/Officers to specify interior design solutions for high-tech commercial construction projects and renovations. Managed the marketing and sales of SMED/Haworth Constructive Solutions Products for the South Carolina market. Constructive Solutions permitted Technology intensive and dependent clients to create highly flexible, technologically advanced workspaces that fully accomodate their needs, well into the future.

Served the Telecommunications division of IKON, the major international Office Systems Solutions Company. IKON Telecommunications was one of AVAYA's largest national resellers, focussed on industry, business and education markets. I personally marketed physical plant solutions to major industry clients throughout South Carolina and the US. Major clients included SONOCO Products, GE Power Systems, PMSC, Fleet Mortgage, SCANA Corp and many others. IKON sold the Telecommunications division and its entire staff was released (without severance) on December 23rd, 2001. This was the result of the construction industry collapse that occurred after the 9/11 terrorist attacks. IKON released employees that had over twenty years of service, without any warning and without the slightest semblance of decency.

Served the Telecommunications department largely in support of headquarters operations in Columbia, SC. Also managed physical plant, network and PBX systems installations for all retail mortgage offices, construction, renovations, maintenance and support. Managed approximately 50 nationwide branches and dozens of build-outs, closures and relocations. Fleet Mortgage was absorbed by WAMU in 2000.

Worked closely with the Facilities and IT departments to support operations, branch construction, facilities planning and renovations. Designed the physical layer infrastructure, hired and managed contractors to build physical and network layer infrastructure at approximately 30 international locations. Travelled extensively in support of facilities planning and IT. PMSC was sold to Computer Science Corporation in 1998.

Founded a small startup providing computer network cabling systems design and installation. The company grew to nearly 20 employees and almost $3 million in sales in less than three years. ComproSC served industry, education and business clients at all levels. ComproSC benefitted heavily from the dot-com boom that existed in the early 90's. The business failed in 1996 when market conditions deteriorated very rapidly.

Originally enlisted as a reservist, split option in 1989, attended basic training the summer after my Jr Year. Then went to AIT as a 29N. Later decided to go active duty and enlisted as a 29Y. Went back to Gordon for 18 months of AIT. Was permitted to opt out early and took advantage of that opportunity. Honorably discharged in 1994.
