I took over as President of Leone Green in June 2022. Over my nearly 20-year career with the company, I have helped position Leone Green as a respected industry leader. I am passionate about driving growth and value for our manufacturers through strong, mutually beneficial partnerships — the bedrock of our success. I am a graduate of Shorter University. My wife and I have two daughters. And when I am not working, you’ll find me traveling with my family, playing golf, and enjoying lake life.
Born and raised in Metro Atlanta. Graduated from Parkview H.S. and the University of Georgia. Go Dawgs! Followed my Dad into the HVAC industry. Started my career at Apex Supply Co. in the late 80’s. After a brief stint with another manufacturer’s rep firm in the 90’s came to Leone-Green in 2004. When I am not spending time with my wife and two kids I enjoy golf, college football and beating my son at Jeopardy.
Born and raised in Memphis. I joined the Marine Corps straight out of high school. Shortly thereafter, I worked with middle school and high school students. I graduated from Crichton College with my BS. I completed my Master’s work at Liberty U. I jumped into the HVAC field in 2007 with an air distribution manufacturer and was told by many, at that time it was the wrong time to join the industry- ha. In 2016, I joined Leone-Green & Associates. I’m a certified personal trainer and nutritionist. I enjoy helping people navigate that side of life.
I was born and Raised in Peoria IL. I moved to Middle Tennessee in 2006 and never looked back. Graduated from MTSU in 2010 with an MBA in Business Management. Married in 2012 to a wonderful woman named Jessica. We now have a daughter and son and reside in Murfreesboro TN.
I’ve been in the HVAC industry since 2011 selling to distribution as a manufacturer and a manufacturer rep. When I’m not with the family or working, you can find me on a golf course throwing discs. I’ve been competing professionally on the PDGA tour since 2006.

Worked for Trane in KY and IN for 13 years and then moved with my wife and two kids to South Florida where I became a salesman for Mitsubishi. In 2014 I started my own HVAC/R Rep firm until 2019 when I joined Leone-Green & Associates. If I am not out riding my Harley, I am at the dog park with my 120 pound Bernedoodle.
I began my career in 1989 in Knoxville, Tn. with Genuine Parts company. Over the course of 26 years I had responsibilities as a store manager, multi store operations manager and sales account manager. In 2015 I received an opportunity to move to Clearwater, Fl. and started a new position with an HVAC wholesaler as an Account manager, supporting HVAC contractors along the west coast of Florida. January 2022 was an exciting time for me when I received a great opportunity to become a manufacturer sales representative for Leone Green and associates for the west coast and Central Florida. I have been married to my wonderful wife Ashley for 8 years. She and I enjoy living in Florida with our two dogs and two cats. When I’m not working, I enjoy fishing and enjoying the outdoors.

Over the prior 15 years, I worked with a HVAC manufactures rep group covering the north/central Florida market. Throughout my career, I have enjoyed working in the HVAC industry with our manufacture, distributor and contractor partners. Developing strategies on how to grow our businesses together and promote new/evolving products in the market. The goal is to provide my customers with the support and product knowledge that contributes to the growth of each of our companies. Away from work, my wife Callet and I live in Valdosta, Ga where we spend a majority of our time outdoors. We both enjoy the beach, hiking, and working in our garden. Hunting/fishing with family and friends have also been a big part of my life. The time and experiences that we have shared together are memories that will last a lifetime.
I began working in the HVAC/R industry in 1995. I started my HVAC/R career at Mingledorff’s in the warehouse and I then transitioned to counter sales. I stayed with Mingledorff’s for 5 years. I then joined C.C. Dickson as a branch manager for their Marietta Ga location. I went on to pen and mange two other branch locations in the Metro Atlanta area. I spent 11 years at C.C. Dickson Co. during this time, I became the technical service advisor for the LG and Allied Air equipment they sold at the time. I also became a Copeland EST and a certified installer for Climatemaster Geothermal equipment. After C.C. Dickson I joined Daikin Applied as their parts manager for Georgia/Alabama for 10 years. In 2020 I came to work for Leone Greene and Associates as their commercial sales and support specialist. Since joining Leone Green I have become a Gree Technical Educator.
My experience working with different HVAC suppliers over the years both in residential and commercial applications, has given me the knowledge to easily cross reference parts and supplies and to know what products best fit our customer’s needs.

All 3 play sport and outside of work you will find me on a ball field all weekend long. I have coached baseball, basketball and football since 2014. We are a family of Tarheel fans, if we aren’t watching sports then we are more than likely out on the water.
