Q: What duties does your job position entail?

I have served as Tsurumi’s Midwest Regional Sales Manager since August 2017. My responsibilities include educating distributors, partners, and end customers about Tsurumi's extensive range of pumping solutions. I take pride in serving our mining, industrial, commercial, and municipal markets. I particularly appreciate collaborating with my colleagues and partners to identify the best solutions for our customers.


Q: What does a good customer experience mean to you?

As a representative of a manufacturer, I find it crucial to find enjoyment in engaging with people, excel in problem-solving, and thoroughly understand our products. These qualities are integral to my role. I enjoy collaborating with individuals and visiting sites to understand their operational conditions, whether dealing with pumping solids, abrasives, or corrosive substances. I then evaluate our product range to determine the most suitable solution for our customers. It is essential that the customer, whether an end-user or a distributor, has confidence in my expertise and trusts that I represent a high-quality product line. I strive to provide them with the best solution available from Tsurumi.
 

Q: Do you have any hobbies outside of work?

I have a strong passion for playing music, particularly the piano and the guitar. I also enjoy cooking, whether it's smoking meats, grilling steaks, or occasionally baking.
