Social Circle, Georgia, United States
I have an extensive background in the packaging industry starting with my first full time job in the corrugated industry while I was going to to college through today where I work with capital equipment for the food and chemical industries. I have day to day contact with Fortune 500 companies and have built many relationships with my customers. I have over 25 years of experience in the packaging industry from cartoning to VFFS (Vertical Form and Seal) to drum filling equipment.
Back to selling full lines and VFFS, very excited to be here.
A new adventure with more details to follow.

Managed multi-million dollar capital equipment projects in the cartoning and VFFS industries.
