I came aboard Construction Product Sales as VP of Business Development in June 2022. I am excited beyond measure to be part of such a great team. We at CPS working as a team, will continue taking what we currently do very well to the next level in all of our business facets.
Before CPS, I had an 11+ year experience with an industry leading industrial tool manufacturer as a Director of Sales. During my time there, I achieved consistent year over year top line sales growth while also gaining respectable bottom line margins and improving profitability. I lead a direct sales team while also partnering with and managing independent representative agencies/firms. I was also involved with product management/development and worked in the e-commerce channels within our customer base.
Previous to that, I worked for two independent representative firms within our current marketplace. From boardrooms to job sites and everything in between, I always am ready for the next challenge. I look forward to facing it with a firm handshake and a smile.
I am based out of the Twin Cities in MN. Outside of work, I enjoy sports, especially hockey (Go Wild!). I also enjoy snowboarding in the winter and getting out in the lake in the summer with my family.

I began my career with CPS in 2022. I have been in construction sales nearly my entire life. As a kid, I started repairing tools for a construction supply distributor in Chicago for a couple bucks a tool. Now, nearly 30 years later, I have chosen to stay and make my career in this industry because it is something I’m truly passionate about. I have worn many hats in the construction world including working for a General Contractor, an Outside Sales Representative for a large distribution company, and a Territory Sales Manager for large manufacturers such as Fein and Spyder. This gives me a unique perspective in solving problems. I was born and raised in the western suburbs of Chicago. After shuffling around different areas for my career, I ended up settling on the Southside of Chicago with my daughter Elinor. In my personal time you can usually find me enjoying my other passion: playing, writing, or listening to music.

I began my carreer with CPS in 2023 and am more than thrilled to be a part of it! I was born and raised just north of the Twin Cities, and I am the 2nd youngest of 5 children. In my free time I enjoy being outside in the great outdoors! I love hunting, hiking, and camping. I also enjoy riding my motorcycle and working on cars (you could say I am a bit of a motorhead).
I look forward to the journey this opportunity grants me and the great connections I plan to foster.
God speed.

What is a Manufacturer's Representative?
A Manufacturer’s Representative is a company that provides sales and service for one or several manufacturers of complementary product lines within a defined territory. These companies sell products directly from the manufacturer to wholesale and retail customers.

Benefits of working with us
CPS sales representatives cover specific geographic territories which allow them to maintain excellent relationships with our customers and know their market very well. We represent multiple complementary product lines so our customers benefit by working with one representative who handles purchasing and service needs for several manufacturers.
CPS representatives also have extensive experience in the industry and are well versed in all our product lines. We attend manufacturer trainings and trade shows such as STAFDA, World of Concrete, and The ARA Show among others. CPS also maintains memberships with organizations such as MANA, ARA, and others. These conventions and memberships allow us to gain product knowledge and stay informed of new developments within the construction industry.
