After working in a grocery retailer to put myself through college, I joined Ace Hardware’s corporate merchandising department in 1986 and my lawn & garden career began. Ten years later, I left my buyer position at Ace and became a merchant at The Home Depot managing the Lawn & Garden category. After nine seasons at The Home Depot, I felt it was time to transition to the sales side of the business and I joined PMR in 2005.
