He is a strong leader who understands field service mentality at the grass roots level having started his career as a field service technician.

Why do you feel you would make a good Advisory Board member?
I have been the key individual in transitioning GA Services from a product-based company to services-based organization, servicing kiosk and other third-party partners. Over the past three years, we have partnered with companies such as Netkey, Frank Mayer & Assoc, Sign Storey, Adflow, BMW, Serta Mattress, CKE Enterprise (parent company of Carl's Jr and Hardees) and much more providing field service activity for them, including new installs, adds, moves and changes, technology upgrades and break fix services. I believe I would add considerable value from an implementation and support perspective to the organization.
