Kinetrol USA is a wholly owned subsidiary of Kinetrol Ltd. in Farnham, England. We manufacture severe service quarter-turn pneumatic actuation products that are used throughout the process industry (Power Plants, Refineries, Pulp & Paper, Food & Beverage, Municipal, etc.). Kinetrol builds the highest quality actuators in the world and they save companies millions of dollars because of their long maintenance free life. I am proud to have grown with this company and I enjoy my role as the West Coast Regional Sales Manager for Kinetrol USA. As a Mechanical Engineer myself, I appreciate the simplicity and robustness of its design and I can sell it because I believe in it. I manage a 13 state territory in the West with the end goal of growing sales for our company and protecting and promoting our brand. My day to day tasks involve building out a Distributor and Rep network in the West, making end user sales calls with my Distributor partners, cultivating and maintaining important OEM accounts, Presenting at Engineering firms and assisting them in writing specifications, and attending a number of different industry trade shows such as AWWA, WEFTEC, ISA, Mining Expo, Power Gen Show, Chemical Show, and others.

I formed She-Edison, LLC to pursue my passion/hobby of inventing things! I have always been a garage tinkerer, and I am a natural creator (or improver) of innovative solutions to everyday problems. Over the past 18 years I have invented, patented, and brought to market the SnapBagger-Ultimate Yard Cleanup Tool, SnapBag-Eco friendly reusable bag for SnapBagger, YardPup-Ultimate Poop Scoop, and WasteBagger PRO. What started as a hobby, has turned into a small profitable business endeavor that allows me to exercise my Engineering and selling skills. Once designed, I turn the products over to individuals who can "take it from there" and so I don't have to handle the day to day operations. Creating a product then licensing it to an interested party is the ultimate goal. I have an ever-growing sales channel network with our largest partners being Wal-Mart, QVC, ACE Hardware, and more recently Amazon.com, Home Depot.Com, Lowes.Com, and Bed Bath and Beyond.com to name a few.
