Thermadyne

• St. Louis, MO

• National Sales Manager

  • Jun 2002 - Apr 2006

  As National Sales Manager for Firepower, I was helping develop existing customers and bringing on new accounts that were fueling growth for the division. The Firepower division of Thermadyne was outpacing all other North American divisions on a percentage basis. Knowing sales people will continue to be one of my strengths. I can easily detect a competitive and passionate nature and I welcome the challenge of building an entire sales team or re-spiriting an existing one. Firepower is a distributor of welding equipment and accessories to various channels outside of the traditional welding distributor’s market.



Rockford Products Corporation

• Rockford, Illinois Area / Office from Kansas City, MO

• National Account Manager

  • Nov 1994 - Jun 2002

  The position required the recruitment and hiring of Independent Rep Agencies and the ability to sell our products through all three channels of distribution. The ability to make sales presentations to all levels of management and the training of sales representatives are just two of my strengths. Having to deal with several markets, and having to understand the mechanics of those markets, strengthens my ability to adapt to ever-changing target market areas.
