BACKGROUND

I grew up in Toledo, in a family of 6. I’m the second oldest and definitely a baby boomer.  I have 2 sisters and 3 other brothers –  we were all very close.  I grew up playing pick up football and baseball; sports were a big part of our family. I went to school locally at St. Francis DeSales High School – and then on to the University of Toledo, graduating in 1982. Prior to endevis, I joined Aim Executive Recruiting and Search right out of UT and spent 27 years there. Fortunately, I was recruited by endevis! My Father was my biggest critic and inspired me to succeed in this industry. After my first year in the industry, my father told me to get a real job!! From that day on, I never looked back and have enjoyed an awesome career!

CAREER HISTORY

BBA U of T, Certified Personnel Consultant, Expert in Relationship Development, most of my experience has been in the Automotive Supply and OEM base manufacturing, with some Consumer Durable clientele, close to 40 years in the recruiting industry. My values are: do your job and do it well, everyone will be successful and in the bad times, dig in and never give up! Our environment at endevis helps us achieve this!

NICHE/SUCCESS STORIES

Business Development/relationship building, every situation, good or bad is an opportunity to excel! The ability to change peoples’ thought processes to change an outcome positively! My best deal ever was placing a Gen. Manager for auto seat manufacturer in Monroe Mich. to Hiroshima Japan and charging Ford 40% for him!

ENDEVIS

The Team Building environment:  it’s amazing to me when a group of people can come together and help each other be successful, our business environment enables us to do that.

OUTSIDE OF WORK

I enjoy golfing and working out, spending time with my twins, granddaughters, stepchildren and my wife Kim “her Majesty”, working around my house and at the end of the day being able to watch the sun set!
