LIFE BEYOND BAKING
“I enjoy spending my free time with my wife, four children, and Labrador. Our family loves hiking, camping, hunting, fishing, and gardening – basically, any excuse to be in the woods or the water. When we’re not able to be outdoors, I enjoy jigsaw puzzles and reading.”
OUTLOOK ON GLOBAL BAKING INDUSTRY
“I love the fact that we as an organization have the opportunity to help our customers solve problems and provide them with the essential goods and services to keep them operating. I am deeply appreciative of the effort and care that the entire Bundy Baking Solutions team puts into helping our customers, and one another, be successful.”
BAKING MEMORIES
“I took my first bakery tour when I was 5 or 6 years old. I remember how excited I was when I saw a bakery running for the first time. I was with my parents and Bob Wolf of Nickles Bakery. Bob gave me a tour of the bakery – taking the time to show me what each machine did and how everything worked. At the end of the tour, he grabbed a loaf of raisin bread off the cooler and gave it to me. While my parents talked with him, I ate the entire loaf. That feeling of amazement and excitement has remained with me and I feel that same exhilaration when I walk into a bakery today.”
