As an Account Executive at Advantage Technology, I partner with businesses from small to large, learning their environments and workflows to make them as efficient as possible. My focus is serving my clients; which means being proactive with cybersecurity, budgets, and the latest technologies so that sound and prompt decisions can be made. I like to take on new challenges, going in depth to look at the workstations, servers, networks, phone systems, and even the cabling so I can position my clients for success with the least amount of downtime possible.

Before coming to Advantage Technology, I started my career in sales at Apple, which gave me a great base of customer service and technical support. I’ve been a top performer in sales in multiple industries and also have experience in operations management.

In my free time, I enjoy playing guitar, golf, tennis, hunting, fishing, gaming, and working on my lawn. Most of all, I enjoy spending time with my wife Julia, and my 2 kids, Jett and Sylvie.
