I manage many projects within the merchandising display division of WestRock. Keeping an upbeat attitude, while helping others wherever I can. Keeping track of dozens displays with dozens of parts at one time is fun and immediately rewarding when I go to a Walmart, Dollar General, CVS, Kroger, or any other major store and see the displays I managed. The next time you see a Tums, Advil, Flonase, Sensodyne, Centrum, or Emergen-C endcap or display at your favorite store, you know it came from my desk at WestRock.

I learned from the best sales manager in the country. Monday through Friday, the flowers and trailers would be prepped for Saturday’s work day in the Detroit Eastern Market. On that day, I would wake up at 2 am, be at the green house by 3 am, be in Detroit by 4 am, unload the trucks and trailers by 5 am, and we would price everything by 6 am. From 6 am to 5 pm, we would sell flowers to a market of over 40,000 customers.
