I am originally from Dixon IL and spent 8 years in the Army Infantry and Ranger Batalion. I graduated from St. Ambrose University with my Bachelors in Business. I have been in the industry for going on 3 years now.  I currently live in Bettendorf Iowa with My wife Tricia and my 2 daughters Grace (4) and Olivia (1).

What I like most about Phelps is: the family culture and environment. Working in Fortune 100/500 style companies my whole life I’ve never been treated their like I have at Phelps. The people at Phelps are positive and love to be here. Our service department is top of the line and truly care about the customer which you don’t always see. With Phelps I feel at home with great people that care about myself and family!

My favorite thing about working at Phelps is the hunt for new accounts, along with the variety of products we carry. It allows us to become our customers one stop provider while saving them money. What I enjoy most about my job is that every day is a new adventure, meeting with a variety of businesses, learning what they do and the ability to customize a program to their specific needs. I get to personally address my accounts service issues along with renewals of agreements. When not working, I enjoys watching my daughter play soccer, my son at Tae Kwon Do, along with hunting, fishing, boating, and spending time with my family.

I have 20+ years of experience working in the uniform industry. Phelps is different from their competitors in that they are a family owned business and you can see they truly care about their employees. I enjoy helping my customers find the right solution for their needs to help them run their business more successful with a good uniform program. In all my travels and visits to industrial laundry plants over the years, I have never seen a plant cleaner than the Phelps plant, it is amazing and a great place to work!
