Tim Flynn

I helped begin Allied Wire & Cable in my parents’ basement in 1988. I am fortunate enough to come from a family with a wire & cable background, so learning the business came very quickly to me. In those days, there were just a few of us working 12 hour days in that basement, doing everything on our own. From those meager beginnings, we have transformed Allied into the fastest growing specialty manufacturer and distributor of wire and cable in the USA.

My personal mantra has always been, "you can never do enough for your customer." Allied is a great company to work for with terrific employees. It feels great to come to work every day and enjoy the people you work with.

I am also proud to play an active role in the business community, and have presented on topics such as international trade, online marketing, big data analytics, and entrepreneurship at a wide range of forums and conferences throughout the US. I have also appeared in several installments of Executive Leaders Radio, where business leaders are asked to share stories and insights about their companies and their personal journeys to achieving success. You can hear my talks at http://executiveleadersradio.com/flynn-tim-3185.aspx.

In 2012, I was named as a finalist for Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year, a program which honors business leaders for their roles in building successful companies. Areas considered include innovation, perseverance, leadership, and vision, among others.

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my wife, Annette and my two beautiful girls, Erin and Megan. I am a certified scuba diver, and like working out, and playing racquetball and tennis in my free time.

Dan Flynn

I was born and raised in the suburbs of Pennsylvania, and joined Allied Wire & Cable, Inc. in 1990 after graduating from Cabrini College. I was invited to join Allied in a sales/management position and enjoyed the challenges and hard work it took to start a successful company alongside my brothers. My policy has always been to be the best supplier a customer ever had.

In 2012, I was named as a finalist for the Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year award, which recognizes business leaders for their influence on a company’s success, particularly in the areas of innovation, leadership, vision, and perseverance.

I still reside in the suburbs of Philadelphia and enjoy all sports, especially golf, and spending time with family and friends.

Chris Burke

I began my career with Allied in April of 1990 after graduating from Widener University in 1985 and spending the following 5 years playing professional basketball in Europe and in the United States. During this period I played for teams in Italy, France, Brazil, Spain and even played with the Philadelphia 76ers. After all that fun I thought it was time to finally get a "real job." Having worked for Allied for over 20 years I can't believe how fast the time has passed, and I have enjoyed every moment of it. I pride myself on the great relationships I have built up with my customers in that time—relationships built on loyalty, trust and service, is a mantra that all my fellow employees at Allied seem to share.

I am an avid sports enthusiast, especially when it comes to Golf and Basketball. My other great love is my family, especially my beautiful twin girls, Allie & Maddie. We also have a family dog named BooBoo.

Libby Achenbach

I am fortunate that my first job out of college has been to work with Allied Wire & Cable. It seems like it was just yesterday that I graduated from Middle Tennessee State University in 1994. I learned right away that the customer is the lifeblood of our company and that we must do everything to ensure that they receive great service, pricing and attitude. I pride myself in having extensive knowledge of all types of wire, cable, and accessories. However, my greatest joy still remains interacting with customers and building long-term relationships.

I am blessed with my twin boys, Jake and Ashton, who were born on February 18th 2006. I enjoy a good game of golf when I can get out nowadays, hanging out with friends, and spending time with my boys.

Tony Spina

I started my career in the wire and cable industry in 1980 with Viking Wire Company, located in Danbury, CT. I relocated to the Philadelphia area in 1988 to help create and manage Peak Wire & Cable in Wayne, Pa. After Peak sold the business to Heilind Electronics, I relocated to the Harrisburg area and got involved with wire and cable distribution as the purchasing manager for Cumberland Electronics, where I spent 15 years. As the saying goes “things happen for a reason”, I joined Alpha Wire Company and that’s where I had the pleasure to meet and work with Allied Wire and Cable. During my time as the District Manager for Alpha Wire, AWC was the only company I worked with that showed the aggressiveness and dedication needed to grow in the wire and cable industry.

I joined the Allied Wire and Cable family in May 2007. Allied is focused on the customer; the entire team shows great professionalism and drive to satisfy the customer in this very challenging industry. Those are the same attributes that has allowed me to maintain and develop within the industry.

I currently reside in Elizabethtown, PA with my wife Debby. We have four children and two grandchildren. In my free time I enjoy playing golf and traveling.

Pat Wilson

I joined Allied Wire & Cable in 1992, but have been in wire and cable distribution since 1987. My strengths are my experience and knowledge in the marketplace and forging long-term customer relationships. I receive a lot of personal satisfaction when I help a customer get out of a jam. I also take a lot of pleasure in helping the younger sales people in learning the wire and cable industry.

I am married and have two great kids Laura and Jack. Our family activities include fishing at the nearest lake when ever possible. I am a sports addict especially when it comes to golf and hockey.

I've been in purchasing for five years. I started to purchase wire about 4 years ago. I had to deal with several different suppliers.

If I need to change an order, pull in or push out, there's never a problem.

It's with esteemed pleasure that I write this email to you. Jackie Huffman's professionalism, attention to detail, quick follow up, and positive attitude makes her a dream to work with.

Rich Roselli

I have been with Allied Wire & Cable since 2005.

Growing up, I moved numerous times, but have not had the pleasure to live anywhere but Pennsylvania. Even though I have moved so much, I have never lived any further West then Williamsport, home of the Little League World Series!

I have been married since 2007 to an amazing woman, Lisa. Together we have two beautiful girls, Emma and Katelin. They make me feel that every day is the best day of my life.

I'm a broken-hearted Philadelphia sports fan around playoffs each year, but passionate nonetheless. In my spare time, when I am not playing with my daughters, I can be found working around the house or on the golf course.

Dave Smith

I have been with Allied Wire & Cable since 2009, and have enjoyed working for a company that shares my commitment to quality, customer service, and a common sense approach to business. I love to find solutions for our customers, and AWC's strong infrastructure, stock position, experience, and managerial support are fantastic tools to that end. I have enjoyed developing long term relationships with my customers over the past years, and look forward to doing so for many years to come.

I live in Perkasie, Pa with my wife, two wonderful sons, and our spoiled cat and dog. We love spending time together as a family, going down the shore, working in the yard, going to Phillies games, and taking our family walks for ice cream. I am a self proclaimed 'nerd' and love sharing that with my sons. Be it superheroes, Star Wars, Dr. Who, Transformers, or Fightin Phils my little guys give me an excuse to be a kid again and I love it.

What Customers Are Saying About Dave Smith

Buyer | Contract Manufacturer in Pennsylvania

I wanted to send a big note of thanks for your generosity. My family had a wonderful time on Friday! That was my first Phillies game with the boys, and it was a memorable evening. The highlight of the evening was my son getting a foul ball! (the ball girl brought it to him, he didn't actually catch it!) Thank you again for the time you spent, and the wonderful tickets and the tailgate feast!

Sean Brennan

I graduated from West Chester University in 2005 with a degree in Business Management. After graduating college, I started my wire and cable career at Omni Cable in the Fall of 2005. I joined the Allied family in January 2010 and I’m extremely excited to carry on the exceptional customer service tradition.

I married my beautiful wife, Erica, in December of 2012. We were blessed with a baby boy named Andrew in February of 2015. When we are not spending time together as a family, you can usually find me competing on a softball field or golf course.

What Customers Are Saying About Sean Brennan

Account Manager | Distributor in VA

I wanted to let you know how much I greatly appreciate having a vendor and salesman I can count on 24/7. I have a customer who had a fire at their plant Friday night (3/18/16). My customer started calling me Saturday afternoon trying to find wire and cable as fast as possible. Even though Sean was out of the country he took the time to answer my calls and round up the needed wire. By 7:00pm Saturday night we had a complete BOM form my customer, everything AWC had in stock needed to be picked up Saturday night for delivery Sunday. Sean called Jim Thivierge, the warehouse manager, and between the two of them, they were able to coordinate getting the wire pulled and labeled for me to pick up.

As I was driving up to AWC, Jim called to to let me know the wire was ready and he would meet me at the warehouse regardless of my arrival time. True to his word, he was waiting for me at 11:30 pm Saturday night when I arrived. Jim helped me load the wire, which completely filled my car and had me on my way back to Richmond in 20 minutes.

Again I cannot adequately express how much it is appreciated what these two gentlemen did for me, and on a weekend. It is this type of service that keeps me a loyal customer of AWC.
Sales Associate | Distributor in Ohio

I wanted to take a few moments and drop you a quick but very important email. I’ve been in the electrical distribution business for most of my adult life and have worked with thousands of vendors. I remember Sean Brennan coming in and making his pitch to try and get some of the business away from his competition. Sean was killing us with customer service, technical support and pricing. Fortunately, Sean won us over and I’ve been a HUGE Sean @ AWC fan since. I continue to receive the great service that I’ve come accustom to with Sean; however something has changed. Dana Ziobro has blossomed into this AMAZING customer service representative. She is a great extension of Sean! The thing that I want to stress is that Dana goes the extra mile!!! She sends me weekly updates on all of my orders along with tracking information. I can’t tell you that how much that impresses me and makes me want to give all of my business to Allied Wire & Cable.
Just to recap this lengthy email; Sean Brennan and Dana Ziobro are just about the best in the business!!!!

Jeff Cook

I graduated from Temple University in 2000 with a degree in Elementary Education, but after graduation I moved into sales. While Allied is my first experience in the wire and cable industry, I've worked at a few companies in the technology industry including Dataq, Techni-Tool and Richardson Electronics.

I have a beautiful wife named Katie and we have one son, Greyson. In my spare time, I enjoy golf, fishing and hunting.

Wes Moyer

I joined Allied Wire and Cable in August 2008 as a Sales Assistant and moved into sales in December of 2010.

I graduated from West Chester University in 2006 with a bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice. Before AWC, I worked various retail jobs, which helped me build the important customer service and people skills that are crucial to helping out customers, as well as my fellow employees.

I currently reside in Pottstown, PA with my wife, Bridget and our son, Mason. Outside of work, I enjoy golfing in the summer and in the winter I am a member of the local curling club. I also enjoy all Philadelphia sports teams, movies, traveling and spending time with my family and friends.

Steve Swavely

I began my career at Allied Wire & Cable as a Sales Assistant in 2010. In February of 2011 I made the jump to Sales. I’ve learned a lot in my few short years in the wire and cable industry, and I’m constantly learning more. I’m excited and enthusiastic for my future in the industry, and am eager to continue expanding my knowledge here at Allied. My goal is to provide excellent customer service with a smile.

I have a degree in Graphic Design and Multimedia. Prior to joining Allied, I worked for a local sporting goods company from 2004 to 2010.

In my spare time, I enjoy checking out the local food and bar scene. I also enjoy working out, Muay Thai and spending time with friends, family and my girlfriend.

Michael Flynn Jr.

As a Flynn, I have always been a part of the Allied family. Although I didn’t officially start as a Sales Assistant here at AWC until September of 2014, I have been working for the family business since I was a teenager.

I studied business at Widener University, and I am excited to put those skills to good use. Prior to being on the sales side of the wire and cable industry, I was working in the warehouse where I was responsible for many things, including spooling and picking. I also worked in the IT department for a short while, where I helped with different technical issues. Each position was a beneficial experience, and has taught me how vital each individual department is to the business as a whole.

I am a huge sports fan, so outside of work I love a good pick-up rugby match, and am passionate about the NFL - go Steelers! My girlfriend and I also love to go to concerts and spend time with our dog, Rex.

Kevin Elphick

I started here at Allied in September of 2014, and I am excited to continue my career with the AWC family.

Although I am new to the company, I am familiar with the sales industry and began my career at an Atlanta-based commercial collection agency where I worked in sales and client services. I also dabbled in the wire and cable industry while working at the Philadelphia branch of Anixter until 2000.

I am a graduate of West Chester University, where I earned a degree in Liberal Arts, and am an avid music fan. I am very happy to be back in the Northeast and working for a solid company that takes such an interest in their employees.

Nick DeLuca

Shortly after graduating from McDaniels College in 2013, I joined the wire and cable industry. My wire and cable career began with Omni Cable at their corporate office in West Chester, Pennsylvania, where one of my key responsibilities as a member of the sales team was to help grow low potential accounts. Through my previous wire and cable sales experience I have learned how to build strong customer relationships and initiate new business, and I have learned the importance of hard work and dedication.

Aside from working in the wire and cable industry, I also spent some time working in window manufacturing at Viwinco Inc, where I was able to use my wire and cable sales experience to become more familiar with the manufacturing angle of the job. In my spare time I like to keep active and play sports, go to concerts, and spend time with family and friends. I’m also a huge Philly sports fan. I look forward to being a member of the AWC team, and I am excited about joining the Allied family!

Simon Weil

As a wire and cable veteran, I’m joining the Allied team out of their PA headquarters with many years of experience. I began my career in the wire and cable industry with General Cable, and since then there’s been no turning back! I spent a good five years with General Cable as an inside sales rep before moving onto Houston Wire & Cable where I worked as a wire and cable specialist for three years. Most recently, before beginning my career with Allied, I worked for Anixter as a wire and cable specialist for just over twenty years. Forming customer relationships and providing extensive product knowledge are two areas of the business that I excel in, and I’m excited to be working with Allied’s valued customers, as well as being a part of the Allied family.

Spenser Stratton

Transitioning from working in the warehouse to the sales floor is very exciting and I'm eager to continue my career with Allied in a different area of the business. I learned a lot during my time working in manufacturing and picking, and I believe that the knowledge I gained while in the warehouse will be nothing but beneficial to our valued customers.

When I'm not working, I like to go to the gym, play basketball, and keep active. I also enjoy spending time with my family and friends on weekends, and relaxing before the start of another work week!

Jeff Sweeney

Having a friend in the industry and looking for a career change is what brought me to Allied. I previously worked in the travel industry and was able to travel all over to places such as the Caribbean, South America and Europe. I also was a new business development manager in the electronic tool distribution market for 5 years.

When I’m not working I have a son and two step-daughters that keep me busy. I enjoy spending time with my family, and traveling. I’m also a die hard sports fan. Go Eagles and Phillies!

Jeanmarie Mohrman

I joined the Allied Wire & Cable family in May 2008 after relocating to Pennsylvania from Long Island, New York. I started as the IT administrative assistant, and my duties included distributing leads, assisting with IT daily operations, overseeing special IT projects and pitching in wherever else I was needed. Over the course of my tenure with IT, I really honed my skills with leads distribution and qualification. So when, in March 2017, I was presented with an opportunity to become the leads distribution administrator and help develop the newly formed CSR department, I jumped on it. My attention to detail, ability to multitask and love of learning new things make the challenges that come with developing a new department easy to overcome.

When I'm not at Allied, you can find me with my family. My husband, Brian, and I welcomed our son Jaxson in June 2015. We enjoy family outings to monster truck shows, hockey games, zoos and especially love just hanging out at home with our Golden Retriever, Cooper.

Michael Pompa

I joined Allied Wire & Cable as a customer service representative in October 2017. I enjoy working with people and have a background in customer service as well as in wire and cable, having been employed at a home improvement and appliance store.

I also enjoy exercising and love immersing myself outdoors. I strive to fit physical activity into each day.

I satisfy my curious nature by researching new topics every day. My favorite subject to research is film, and I write my own fanfiction and reviews.

Because of its accessibility and diversity of content, YouTube is the source of much of my entertainment.

Amanda Wentzel

I joined Allied Wire & Cable in June of 2014 as a Receptionist. I am new to the wire and cable industry, but I am excited to grow a career here at Allied and I look forward to learning the business!

I am a 2010 graduate of Kutztown University, and have a degree in education. I feel as though my training and experience being a classroom leader will help me transition into my new role, and will help me to assist customers more efficiently. I have worked as a substitute teacher and receptionist in the past, and I am thrilled to be working at a company such as Allied where they value each employee.

I married my wonderful husband Gregg in 2012, and spend most of my free time with him and our four dogs, which are like our children! I am a huge animal lover, and I enjoy volunteering as a foster dog mom.

Michael Herman

In February 2014, I joined Allied as a Sales Assistant. Before coming to Allied I worked for PVH as a retail store manager for 15 years.

I am new to wire and cable, but I’m not new to customer service, and it’s easy to see that’s very important here at Allied. I was referred to this job by a friend because Allied has a lot of the same values as I do, and I’m proud to be part of a family business that is VERY devoted to its customer.

I married the woman of my dreams in 2010, Genna. We love to travel, surf and flop on the beach as much as possible. I’m also an avid cyclist. I have a dance music podcast that I’m very proud of. I really enjoy spending time with my family, reading about the history of baseball, and going to Phillies games with my Dad.

Jacob Right

I graduated from Slippery Rock University in April 2004 with a bachelor’s degree in Resort/Recreation Management/Tourism and a minor in Leadership. I became a 2nd Lieutenant through the Army ROTC program, and continued as a Rifle Platoon Leader in the Army National Guard. Soon after graduation, I volunteered to be deployed to Iraq for Operation Iraqi Freedom, where I was awarded the Bronze Star and Combat Infantry Badge.

After returning home from Iraq, I became a certified Personal Fitness Trainer and Outdoor Boot Camp Instructor. I started an outdoor fitness boot camp for women, which grew to have 11 locations.

I then became the Facilities and Property Management Director for LV Real Estate Advisors, where I oversaw the day to day operations of ten commercial office buildings.

I came to Allied as a Purchasing Agent because I was looking for a new challenging opportunity, and I haven’t been disappointed. Working at AWC has been a pure pleasure. The staff and management have a direct and thorough approach to everything they do, and everyone is committed to giving the customers the absolute best service. In my spare time, I have fun with my son, Logan.

Nick Miller

I joined Allied Wire & Cable as a purchasing agent in our Collegeville, Pennsylvania, headquarters in November 2017. The company’s focus on family and giving back to the local community captured my interest. Before joining, I gained experience in the supply chain management industry, delivering products and services to commercial clients starting in fall 2013. I managed client satisfaction, service coordination and procurement as well as billing, insurance compliance and payments.

My career experiences have helped me to grow into someone who demonstrates assertiveness, positivity, product knowledge, negotiation skills and relationship building. Relationships are key to any negotiation. Using an assertive, but positive, approach allows me to utilize outstanding product knowledge to achieve my goals.

Joining Allied Wire & Cable represents my immersion into the wire and cable industry. I have been an end user, however, of these products for decades. From custom-PC building to home theater and electrical installations, I’ve experienced a wide gamut of wiring and cables.

My hobbies encompass anything involving a good story and complex relationships, including studying history and politics, as well as enjoying movies and TV shows and spending time with family and friends. The interactions between people and events, as well as the consequences of these interactions, fascinate me.

Holly Gantert

I joined the Allied Wire and Cable Family in 2004, and and in the spring of 2006, was offered the opportunity to become a Sales Representative. Since I started as a sales assistant, so I was able to gain valuable experience working behind the scenes. Making sure that each and every customer is well taken care of is always my greatest concern.

Being a mother of two young boys has prepared me for almost any situation that could arises at work. After 5:00 I spend many evenings at football practices, basketball practices, and baseball games. I enjoy spending time at home with my husband, two sons, and dog Ginger.

Allied takes pride in building relationships with all of our customers. As we grow, we will continue to provide exceptional service and professionalism in our relationships with our customers. Giving 110% to meet your needs is all I care about.

Outside of Allied, I reside in the Boyertown area. My husband and I were happily married in 2007. He makes me laugh everyday, and I wouldn't want to journey through life without him. In July of 2008, we gave birth to our beautiful son. He has given me so much joy and has made me realize how beautiful life is. It's amazing how true the statement, "Love at first sight," is.

Upon graduating from the University of New Hampshire in 1992, I began my career in the wire and cable industry. I had the great fortune of developing many meaningful, long-term relationships with customers and suppliers in my previous positions. I joined the Allied organization in October 2006 and I relish the chance to continue building these relationships as I develop new partnerships here at Allied. Allied is a customer oriented business forged on loyalty, integrity and professionalism, and these values are what brought me to the Allied team.

I reside in southern NH with my four, fantastic children. Beside my family, my passions include hiking/climbing mountains, kayaking, hockey, reading and triathlons.

Jess Gamlin

I joined Allied Wire and Cable in January 2005 as their New England account representative. Most of my career experience has been in inside sales positions for wire and cable distribution and manufacturing. I believe focusing on excellence to better service my customers will bring many opportunities for AWC in the competitive New England area.

Most of my time is spent by keeping up with the light of my life, my son, Matthew. He keeps me very busy with his various activities with his friends and our family nearby.

I look forward to working on our new venture for Allied Wire and Cable to help offer exceptional service here in New England.

Adam Baldoumas

I was born and raised in Manchester, New Hampshire, and now live there with my lovely wife, Shannon, and our son, Demitri. I am a one hundred percent New England Patriots fan.

I am an import to the wired world from the wireless world, where I ran my own Nextel/Sprint retail store. That experience reaffirmed to me the notion that the customer always comes first, because if you aren't taking care of your customers, someone else will.

Ben Ficken

I graduated from Keene State College in 2004 and went right into the customer service and sales industry, where I’ve stayed ever since. I joined Allied in April 2009. I'm very glad to be working and growing with this dynamic company, because Allied has a real customer oriented focus.

I'm married to my lovely wife Niki, who I've been with since college. We had our first child in 2013, a beautiful daughter. We spend most of our time playing with her, but we also love spending time with the rest of our families, and have a niece and nephew we visit whenever possible. When we're not too busy, you might find us on the golf course or snowboarding, depending on the season. I'm a big New England sports fan, especially the Pats and Bruins.

Recently, my husband and I had our own financial services company where I brokered insurance and investment products. I have been in sales all of my life, loving the fast pace as well as interacting with various people. I first joined Allied in November 2009, and have learned so much from co-workers, vendors and customers alike. I love what I do and look forward to many more years to come.

When I’m not working, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, reading, camping and taking walks. I am married to Rick, the most wonderful man in the world, who is also my best friend. I have 2 young sons, Cameron and Reid as well as two fantastic adult step-sons, Nicholas and Patrick. We also have a male bulldog named Rocco, so I am definitely outnumbered!

What Customers Are Saying About Kim Morrison

Sales Manager | Distributor in Tennessee

I wanted to let you know that Kim Morrison is one of the most hard working people I know in the business. She always processes my order in a timely manner and makes sure I am aware of any changes. I know that when I have a job to handle she will start it and work through it all the way to the end. You just do not find employees like this any more. Because of Kim I give Allied Wire and Cable first shot at any wire business I have!! Kim is a “go get it done” type of person. I wanted to say thank you for her hard work on all that we have done in the past, and I am glad to do business with one of the best companies in the market. Keep up the good work and again thank you.
Owner | Solar Installation Company in California

I've had a great experience working with Kim Morrison. I own a solar installation company in California and reached out to Kim with a small special order over a year ago. She has represented your company in the most fantastic way by following up on a regular basis without being pushy or overbearing. She was consistent, assertive, and very fast to respond whenever I had questions (and there were many). I tell my sales team all the time, “the first step to happy customers is simple… Just do what you say you’re going to do”, and that’s exactly what Kim has done since she responded to my original inquiry. I’m happy to say that I just placed my first order for an innovative idea I’ve had for a while (with a design patent pending). After this proof of concept, I plan to transition all of our installations to using this custom wire exclusively. I’m super excited to see my idea for this innovation become a reality and look forward to doing more business with Kim and the rest of the AWC team.

Bill Stecchi

I graduated from Worcester State College in 2010, where I received my B.S. in Economics and also studied IT and Geography. I joined Allied in March of 2012. Since then I have learned a wealth of knowledge from my coworkers and customers about this industry. I enjoy the fast paced environment and learning about the new things people are making with our wire and cable. The countless relationships I have built throughout the years I have been here are the cornerstone of my business. I really enjoy when I can make a positive impact on my customer's success.

I enjoy spending time with my family and friends. In the summer, I play in an amateur baseball league. Other hobbies I enjoy are fishing, biking, hiking, and riding my motorcycle. I am a music lover and try to see live shows whenever I can. I’m also a huge fan of the Patriots, Bruins and Red Sox. Having lived in Massachusetts my whole life, I can say its nice to be from titletown...

Mike Phelan

I came to Allied Wire & Cable in July 2013, after working as a Manager for Centroid Wire & Cable from 2004 – 2013. Before that, I worked as a Sales Representative at IMS, Inc. I’ve followed in my father’s footsteps from 1973 to the present, working my way up through the ranks in the wire and cable industry, from the warehouse, to Sales Assistant, Inside Sales, and Manager positions.

I have found that service and accountability have always been a great foundation in keeping all customers happy. The product is important, but the satisfaction the customer receives is priceless.

I am happily married to my hearing impaired wife. She has taught me the wonderful world of American Sign Language (ASL). My children include Roger, who sadly passed on in 2009, David, who lives with us in Concord NH, Timm, who is living large in Hawaii, and my daughter, Marie, who has blessed us with two granddaughters and lives in the Lakes Region with James.

My spare time is spent outside! I enjoy the outdoors very much, and fishing has always been a favorite pastime of mine. I love a nice weekend at the beach in the summer or a getaway to the mountains in the fall.

Brad Olsen

I joined Allied Wire & Cable in January 2014. I am new to the wire and cable industry, however I look forward to gaining lots of knowledge about the industry and learning all that I can through literature, colleagues, and customers.

In my free time, I enjoy playing sports and staying active. I love to cook and garden around my house. I also enjoy entertaining my friends, going on day trips, seeing new places, and trying new things.

I am very excited and pleased to be part of such an amazing company – Allied has a sterling reputation and has for more than 25 years. I’m looking forward to learning as much as I can about the cable and wire industry and look forward to many years to come here at Allied Wire & Cable.

What Customers Are Saying About Brad Olsen

Sales Manager | Distributor in California

I just like to note the FANTASTIC customer service we received from your sales associate Brad Olsen. When problems arose with a tracking # Brad followed up, CONTACTED US and took action to ensure we received our order meeting our "new buyer's" delivery date. Looking forward to placing our next order with Mr. Olsen. Thank you and again great job!
Project Engineer | Construction Company in Massachusetts

My Account Representative, Brad Olsen, was very helpful in taking care of a shipping issue that had happened with my last order. I feel he went above and beyond to correct the problem and even took the time out of his day to pick up the order and hand deliver to my office in Quincy, MA. This level of service I find rare in the industry and I am very happy to do business with your company.

Alexander Laureano

Although I am new to the wire and cable industry, I am looking forward to bringing my sales experience to the team and become a part of the Allied family. I have a lot of experience in cold calling, door-to-door sales, retail sales and by appointment sales. Before working at Allied, I worked for a home improvement company where I estimated roofing jobs for customers. I enjoy talking to customers and helping them find a solution to their needs.

Outside of work is always family time. When I’m not at work, I’m very busy taking care of my three children. My family and I enjoy outdoor activities such as playing football, and fetch with our dog. We love to go on road trips around Manchester and Nashua. Wednesday nights and Sunday mornings we go to a Hispanic Community Church. My wife and I are part-time ministers within the church where we take care of missions outside the US and run the couples retreats.

Michael Arrington

Before joining the Allied team, I was a personal banker, sold barcoding supplies, worked for Comcast Cable, and have experience in professional fundraising. I was looking for a new challenge and was referred to the wire and cable industry. I’m excited for this new experience and to join the Allied family!

When I’m not at work, I’m typically caring for my family. My hobbies are camping, fishing, kayaking, and generally being outdoors.

Katie O'Leary

Prior to coming to Allied at the beginning of May 2012, I worked at the YMCA for 4 years. While there, I was the financial aid coordinator and worked the front desk. This is my first job working in wire and cable, and working at Allied has been a great experience! Everyone I have met is friendly and extremely helpful. The positive attitudes make for a great work environment.

When I'm not working, I coach cheerleading. I enjoy spending time with family and friends, going to the movies, hiking, reading and going to the beach.

Laura Gaskill

This is my first experience in the wire and cable industry, but I’m very excited to be a part of the Allied family. The positive attitudes and dedication to great customer service make this a great place to work! Before Allied, I worked as a bridal consultant for 6 years, and I graduated from Montserrat College of Art in 2005 with a BFA.

I love to travel, work on my painting and photography skills, cook for my family and friends, and any extra time leftover I spend outdoors!

Melody Dussault

I joined Allied Wire & Cable as a sales assistant in September 2017. In recent time, I worked as a quality assurance specialist for a small and growing staffing agency. I also worked for the American Red Cross as phlebotomist for six years and staff scheduler for seven years.

I enjoy new challenges, and my position at Allied Wire & Cable reflects this part about me.

I have been married to my husband, Jesse, since 2004, and we have a son, Logan, and our niece, Kloe. We also have a chihuahua, Nemo. Our family is busy with school activities, Saturday trips, family dinners and planning our next events. I love spending time with my family on the weekends.

I take pleasure in baking and preparing new recipes as well as planning and decorating for holidays and parties. My weekly goal, however, is to sleep in on Saturdays, but this, alas, is one I’ve yet to achieve.

Debby Lupo

I joined the Allied Wire & Cable team in July of 2006, and I have been in the wire industry since 1991, giving customers the best customer service possible.

I have been a native of Wisconsin all my life, living in Mukwonago. I am a mother of three: two daughters and a son. My daughter Rebecca also works for Allied as a Sales Assistant. I am also a grandmother to two awesome boys. My husband also has three children, so I am a step-mom to two more sons and a daughter, and grandmother to another handsome grandson. Yes, can we say “Brady Bunch”?

We spend our free time in the summer riding our Harley or going to see a Brewer’s Game. In the winter months, we try to catch a Bucks game from time to time. Or just spend time with family whenever we can.

What Customers Are Saying About Debby Lupo

Outside Sales Representative | Electrical Distributor in Minnesota

I would like to compliment Debby on the great customer service I receive from her. She is prompt, very knowledgeable, and I enjoy working with her. We have a military contactor that bids a lot of projects, and she is very helpful in sourcing the material. I am looking forward to working with AWC in the future!

James Toshner

Allied Wire & Cable is my first time selling products for the wire and cable industry. Right now I am absorbing all the information possible and applying that knowledge to help my customers. Before Allied, I attended UW-Milwaukee and graduated in 2004 with a B.S. in Kinesiology. I worked at a sales and marketing firm as the Inside Account Manager for companies in the engineering and manufacturing industries.

I married my beautiful wife in early 2011. We absolutely love going to local sporting events and spending time outdoors. I enjoy working out and being active in any way. I also played competitive volleyball in college and still find time to play whenever I can.

Eric Schmidtke

I’ve been in the wire and cable industry since 2000, but have been with Allied since 2008. I started out in this industry in an entry level warehouse position where my specialty was Value-Added Services. I’ve worked in almost every warehouse position possible, and have been a warehouse manager since joining Allied.

I am very excited to be moving into sales with Allied Wire & Cable. I love the emphasis that we put on customer service here and am looking forward to being a more direct part of that equation. The family atmosphere at AWC is second to none and the willingness of the "family" to help is a definite recipe for success.

When I’m not working, I enjoy hunting, fishing, sports, and coaching youth sports. I’m also married with three sons, and two of them are twins.

Jody Hale

I became a member of the Allied Wire & Cable family in May 2013, returning to the wire and cable industry after spending some time as an Investment Advisor and Mortgage Advisor.

For a combined 8 years, I was a Purchasing Manager at Electrol Company, a wire harness, cable assembly, and control panel manufacturer, and at Affiliated Products, a wire harness manufacturer.

I have been married to my best friend, Jeff, since 1986. He has two daughters and 5 grandchildren who live in Florida, where Jeff is from. I am a Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin native, and lived in St. Petersburg FL from 1978-1989. After that, I returned home to family and reside in 5 lake country, in the town of Oconomowoc (which means land of falling waters).

My hobbies include cooking, hiking, boating, reading, and outdoor landscaping/gardening (we have a large yard that we turned into a park-like setting) to enjoy with our dog named Dirtyface, an Australian shepherd. Much of my time is spent active in organizations that support the Shrine Hospitals for Children.

I am grateful and excited to be part of the Allied Wire and Cable family, growing across the country! I firmly believe that manufacturing is what will make our country strong again, and it is wonderful to have an active role.

Megan Emery

After graduating from the UW-Madison, I worked for an aviation services provider that catered to General and Corporate Aviation, first as an Administrative Assistant and finally as the Manager of the Customer Service Department. I came here looking for a new professional challenge and was impressed with Allied’s commitment to their customers and giving back to the community.
I’m a competitive equestrian so in my free time, when I’m not at work, I’m most likely at the barn. I also like to read, enjoy the WI outdoor life, and cheering on the Packers, Brewers and Badgers.

Tom Gilmore

Although I have lived in Tennessee for the past eighteen years, I was born and raised in southern Illinois. I began my career in the wire and cable industry at the age of eighteen, and in the past thirty-three years, I have worked at several major wire companies. From aerospace to automotive, I've worked with all types of wires and cables. My wife Debbie and I have been married for twenty-three years and have three children and two grandchildren. Outside of work my favorite hobby is billiards. Just having recently joined the Allied team in May 2005, I am very excited about this new venture and look forward to an exciting and prosperous relationship with Allied Wire and Cable.

What Customers Are Saying About Tom Gilmore

Wish I could show you a picture of the pile of 10,000’ of four conductor orange wire waiting to get installed in the airplane.

Thanks for the fast response that allowed us to get here. I’ll keep coming back when I get great service like this. Keep up the good work.

Liz Gilmore

I joined my dad here at Allied in September 2012, and I’m thrilled to be working alongside him. He has over 35 years of experience and is going to be taking me under his wing. I am brand new to the wire and cable industry, but I am eager and willing to learn all I can about it. I’m happy to be starting my new career here at Allied, because I think this is an amazing company, filled with opportunities. I know that this is a family owned business, and I definitely feel that through all of the wonderful people here that are so willing to help.

At home, I have wonderful parents, a brother, a sister, two nephews and a niece who all live within a mile of me, so our family is very close. I’m single and trying to establish a solid career before starting my own family. I’m an adventure seeker, as well. I’ve been skydiving 5 times and I also love rock climbing, white water rafting and canoeing.

Ann Marie Denero

As of August 2014, I became one of the newest members to join the Allied work force. I have worked in the wire and cable field for my entire professional career, and am proud to start this new chapter with a value-oriented company like Allied Wire & Cable.

I am a Nazareth College of Rochester graduate where I studied Foreign Languages and International Business, which has definitely aided me in my career. Most recently I worked as a branch manager for Anixter Wire & Cable in Rochester New York for 11 years, and prior to that I worked for Simcona Electronics for 22 years. With over 30 years’ experience, not only have I worked in the sales side of the industry, but I have also worked on the purchasing, inventory and management side of the business.

I am a family-oriented person, and my husband of 31 years and I are immensely proud of our three grown children, one of whom is a Senior Airwoman. I have one grandson who I love to spend time with and spoil, and I also enjoy boating with my husband on the weekends.

Chantay Williams

I joined the Allied family in April 2011. I have served many roles in distribution, supporting customers worldwide for more than 20 years, and I look forward to doing it for many years to come!

Working at Allied is exciting; I not only enjoy working with my colleagues, but also with the large diversity of clients all over the world. With the extensive amount of tools and training that Allied offers, it is easy to help serve many clients’ needs.

I am a native Baltimorean (and avid Ravens fan), but migrated to Las Vegas with my husband, Robert, a Nuclear Radiation Tech who travels quite frequently and is very supportive in my role at Allied Wire and Cable. We were married on 1-11-11 at 1PM, but I still feel like a newlywed and will forever.

In my spare time, I enjoy sailing, sightseeing, Bingo, traveling, skiing, bowling, football (Go Ravens), Nascar (the Busch Brothers and the Miller Lite car), cooking, and lying in the pool all summer.

I 100% love the service that we receive from Allied Wire & Cable and will continue to purchase Alpha Wire thru them!

Chris Linton

I joined the Allied family in August 2010 as an Account Manager at the corporate headquarters in Collegeville, PA. Prior to working at Allied, I was the General Manager for LA Fitness Sports Clubs for over 4 years. In April of 2014, my wife Laura and I relocated to Florida to pursue the opportunity to develop and manage the Tampa, FL location.

Allied is my third family, and I am fortunate and proud to be a part of Allied, as they exhibit the utmost care and respect to their customers and their employees.

In my free time, I enjoy spending my time outdoors golfing, working out, and going to the beach with my wife.

Pat Vaccaro

I'm an Outside Sales Rep with over 30 years experience in the electronic component industry. Throughout the 80's and 90's, most of my experience was gained in the semiconductor business. In 2001 I started working for a harness and assembly company and have been in the wire and cable business ever since, having worked for KSM Electronics and Alpha Wire Company. I'm excited to now be with AWC because it is a great company: The people are very knowledgeable and willing to put in the extra effort that is needed in today's competitive market. I feel I bring experience and a strong knowledge of the Florida wire and cable market, and with AWC's value-added services and strong inventory position, we can definitely bring a great solution to Florida's businesses.

I graduated from North Miami Senior High and took some courses in electronics at Miami Dade Community College and Santa Barbara City College. Even though I don't have a degree I've been fortunate to have had great mentors along the way and still today continue to pursue more knowledge in the sales field.

Bob Bruno

I came to Allied Wire & Cable after years of working in sales, management, and marketing roles at Electronic Component Distributors such as Arrow Electronics, Dove Electronics, and, most recently, with Nu Horizons Electronics. While I have limited wire and cable selling experience, I know my work ethic and being a fast learner will help me be to able deliver the “Allied” level of service our customers deserve.

I’ve been married since 1981, and my wife and I have two girls: one, a nurse in training, and the other in pharmacy school. Since moving to Florida from New York two years ago, we have enjoyed the glorious beaches, and exploring the natural beauty this area has to offer.

Joining Allied has been great. It is beyond impressive, the family atmosphere that permeates throughout the company. Everyone is eager to assist if called upon. The support from all levels at Allied is tangible and real. It feels great to know that there is such focus to deliver unmatched service to our customers.

Pete Jasper

I joined Allied Wire & Cable as a sales rep in November 2013. I’m extremely eager to learn and grow within the Allied family and start my new career in the wire and cable industry.

Even though I live in Tampa, I grew up in Philadelphia and am still a huge Philadelphia sports fanatic. I also played basketball through high school and college. During my free time, when I’m not rooting for the Eagles or Phillies, I enjoy exercising, playing pick-up basketball or fishing.
