Q: What's your favorite part you play here at J.L. Matthews?
A: I love our customers. I really like building those relationships and seeing them when they come in. I like having the opportunity to provide them what they are looking for. I also love working for a family business. I have taken the position that because I work for a family-owned business, I am part of the family and my successes and failures matter. I also feel like my input matters.
Q: How long have you worked at J.L. Matthews?
A: 1 year
Q: Best memories at JLMCO?
A: I loved making arrangements for Jason Atwood to come out and show us the ropes for arborists and discuss how he uses his equipment. I also had the opportunity to go up the tree and it gave me a better understanding of what I'm selling.
Q: What did you do before joining JLMCO?
A: I worked from home as a network partner coordinator for Assemblers Inc. where I coordinated efforts with contractors to get projects completed for the company.
Q: Do you have any hobbies or interests?
A: I play guitar, cycle, and am learning how to golf. I love skeet shooting and sport shooting, but not hunting. I like playing pool and going out to the driving range. When I have the opportunity, I enjoy sitting around with friends for a cigar and a good glass of whiskey.
I moved back to Texas from Chattanooga a year and a half ago to be closer to my family in their "golden years." My Dad lives in Bowie, and my Mom and Grandmom live in Rowlett. I also have a brother that lives in Garland. I have two sons that live with me.
Q: Favorite sport to watch or play?
A: Ohio football!
