Ken Fields Email & Phone Number

Raised in a household with a hardworking mother holding down three jobs and a father with a military background, I was exposed to contrasting yet complementary work philosophies: ‘Work harder, not smarter,’ from my mother, and ‘Work smarter, not harder,’ from my father. This upbringing instilled in me the belief that success stems from a combination of diligent effort and strategic thinking.Over the past nine years, beginning with my tenure at Lowes Food, I have honed my skills in customer satisfaction and leadership. Starting as a part-time butcher with no prior experience, I swiftly ascended to the role of meat department assistant manager within eight months. I was selected by the regional meat merchandiser to spearhead the grand opening of the Kernersville, NC location, showcasing our meat, seafood, sausage works program, and smokehouse offerings. Concluding my tenure at Lowes Food at the helm of the largest market store in the region, I consistently achieved weekly revenues averaging $100,000.Transitioning to a routine maintenance technician role, I leveraged my adaptable nature to excel, ultimately rising to become a regional service technician and team lead within the highest-grossing region nationwide. Collaborating closely with customers, Reiser’s support teams, and sales representatives, I ensure not only the fulfillment but the surpassing of customer expectations, specializing in processing equipment with foundational knowledge in thermoformer/roll-stock packaging.My journey underscores the importance of attitude and mindset in achieving success. With a relentless drive for improvement, I embrace feedback—doubling down on strengths and tripling down on weaknesses. My ambition is to transition into a sales role where I can cultivate strong business relationships, prioritize customer satisfaction, and foster trust through attentive service and support.
