I am a third generation farmer born and raised in the produce business. I started working in my family's vision sorting company at the age of 14 in 1994. I have spent the last 30 years combining vision technology and automation into agriculture, in the field and in the plant. I believe that my experience growing up on a farm and working in the industry gives me a unique skill set for mechanical design, knowing the true demands of production agriculture and knowing what is possible and practical in a physically demanding environment such as production agriculture.

I am head of customer relations, sales, and machine service at SBW. My background comes from 15 years in the civil dirt world, where everyday we used Topcon or Trimble products with our dirt moving equipment. I was in charge of the day to day process, mainline digger and was the company's go to for customer relations when needed. I understand how important it is to leave our customers with little to no down time in the field. SBW can help you produce a full custom automated machine, or even help get your existing machine improved and across the finish line. Whether it be vision, robotics, programming or improving your technology SBW has the answer!
