My Passion: I am passionate about people and getting to know and help others whether it is at work, at home, or within the community. I love meeting people, learning their story and getting to know their interests and passions. Individual’s differences are a beautiful thing and I love that no two people are exactly alike. The sum is always greater than its parts and I love seeing that in action when working with others.
Career Background:I joined the electrical industry in 2009 right after graduating with a Bachelor’s degree in Business Management from UNLV (Go Rebels!!). I started working for a temporary lighting manufacturer with various responsibilities ranging from freight and logistics, to operations, and ultimately in a sales capacity. After our company was acquired in 2017 I worked as a sales manager within the parent company and prior to joining AGS was responsible for sales and rep management over the 17 state western region. Since joining Allied Group Sales in January 2020 I have had the great opportunity to work with, and learn from, many of the knowledgeable individuals at AGS. While working as a member of the Legrand team at AGS, I’ve been able to work in the everyday details of Wiremold, Cablofil, Pass and Seymour, On-Q, and Connectrac and learn about all of the fantastic products and services they offer. In that time, I’ve also had good exposure to the other parts of our business and I am proud to represent all of the manufacturers that Allied Group Sales has partnered with.
Personal Side: Most of my time spent outside of work is with my incredible wife Whitney and our three energetic kids, Brighton, Lydia, and Elias. When we aren’t running to a hockey game, gymnastics or music lessons with the kids, I love sports, serving within my Church, and CrossFit/working out. I also enjoy cooking, traveling with friends and family and playing basketball.
