TEK - Sales and Solutions
Sparta, Tennessee
As an independent representative and contractor of Sales, Engineering, and Consulting services, I am pleased to serve the Metal Stamping industry with press automation equipment from DREHER Automation, and standard press tooling from FIBRO as well as Press Maintenance and Equipment Repair services, and Automation Integration from other key partners.

About Me
After nearly 30 years of progressive experience in sales, purchasing, product design, estimating, quality engineering, and project management in challenging technical environments, I have started TEK-Sales and Solutions where I can best serve the customer. I have a career record of developing strong relationships with customers and vendors and would be honored to serve and support you and your company with press automation equipment, standard press tooling, press maintenance and equipment repair, as well as automation, and other industrial services.
Serving the Industry and Community
Serving as a Board Member is my way of giving back to the industry. I enjoy serving as the District Education Chair where we provide scholarship funds for students pursuing post-secondary education for careers in manufacturing in support of the metal form industry. Prior to the pandemic in 2019, we awarded eight scholarships to employees and family members of Tennessee PMA member companies totaling approximately $10,000. Also awarded were grants to several high schools, vocational schools, and universities totaling about $5,500, as well as $2,000 for tool and die apprenticeship programs. The scholarship and grant program continues to this day.

I am an Adult Volunteer Leader serving on the Council Shooting Sports Committee, District Activities Chair, and local Troop Committee Member.
