I have over forty years of merchandising experience starting in the retail food and consumer package goods industry. In the CPG industry spent thirty-seven years with Keebler/Kellogg organization which is now the Kellanova company with many different responsibilities linked to merchandising and displays. Half of the thirty-seven years was on the retail sales and account side of the business and the other half in customer marketing and a good share of the time leading the Merchandising Services team.

The Kellanova Merchandising Services team has been recognized in the display industry with a multitude of national and intranational awards when it comes to cutting edge display design with smart systems that lead to efficiency and effectiveness at retail.

In my personal time I enjoy hanging out with my best friend and wife for thirty-eight years Lisa and spending time with our four adult children, grandchildren and fur babies. I also enjoy art, music, hiking and all forms of bicycling i.e., road, gravel, inside Spin, hand and drum cycling.
