Financial Controller & Human Resource Manager | I come from the transportation and non-profit side of business. With over 40 years in the accounting and human resource field, I “enjoy” the challenge of finances and people. Having been at the Roadium for almost 8 years, I have come to know that the swap meet business is composed of some of the hardest working people I have ever seen. Our vendors are the backbone of the Roadium, and being able to partner with the management team we have has been a true blessing. And a roller coaster! But like any family, we make it work, and I am proud to be a part of this dedicated group.
