      Aerospace Marketing Manager

      Growing the Aerospace portion of our business, we also make mountain bike components, handled by a separate Marketing manager. I am also involved with the acquisition of new machinery and disposing of the older, outdated machinery. My extensive tooling background has also been called upon to assist the project engineers on new start-ups and improvement of existing jobs.
