Enlisting in the U.S. Navy in 1973 at the tail end of the Vietnam War was the beginning of the most life learning experience. During my career, I served on board three U.S. Navy Ships with deployments to the Asian Pacific and the Indian Ocean. Upon completion of 20 years of service in August 1993, I retired as a Senior Chief Petty Officer.
That same month I was hired on at Production Chemical Manufacturing Inc., also known as Production Car Care Products in Stockton, California, manufacturers of detail/body shop products. As Director of Distributor Recruitment & Private Label I was instrumental in growing its distributor force coast to coast. Working with a dynamic owner, I obtained a wealth of knowledge in the industry. After 9 ½ years, it was time to forge on to a new path.
March 2002, I established an auto detail, auto body & janitorial supply company in Lodi, California, servicing customers in the Central Valley.
January 2013, I assumed the role of General Manager for Nanoskin Products. The company grew from a little-known entity to a widely recognized manufacturer of the Auto Scrub Pad.
September 2018, I resigned my position at Nanoskin Products & started the biggest endeavor yet.
