How long have you been at RJE, and what’s your role in one sentence?
About a year and a half. My role is deliveries and installations.
What led you to RJE?
I found RJE through my experience in the office furniture industry.
What’s a project or moment at RJE that’s struck with you – and why?
There isn’t any one specific project that stands out to me. However, I am a history buff, so I have enjoyed the projects that we have done at Wright Patt.
What do you look forward to most in your workday at RJE?
I look forward to getting the project done. It gives a great sense of satisfaction to see the finished product/project.
How do you personally bring “hug your customer” to life?
By doing my best to make them [our customers] happy regardless of the size of the job.
What elements make a space inspiring to you? Color? Flow? Light? Something else?
To me an inspiring space is all about being installed well – I appreciate the work and challenges that probably went into getting the project to that stage of completion.
What’s your signature style when working with clients or partners?
I always strive to be polite and courteous with clients, so I guess we could call that my signature style.
Salty or sweet?
SALTY… I love pretzels.

There isn’t any one song that comes to mind, but if I did have one, it would probably be something from the rock or metal genre.
