Freedom's Management Team - 175+ Years Combined Experience

Carl founded Freedom in 1999, along with his partners, following a successful career in sales and management at two of the world’s largest independent distributors of their time. Today, Carl has the benefit of 37 years as one of the industry’s top performers in sales and management, and two and half decades as CEO/President of Freedom. He believes in surrounding himself with excellence and experts in their field, as well as the simple philosophy of always putting the customer, the employee, and the company before profit. “The biggest perks of this job is all the people whose lives I get to be a part of, customer or employee. Suddenly realizing the person you’re talking with, you’ve been talking to since the early 1990’s, is a big deal! Says something. I take that very seriously. Having the benefit of taking part in a young employee’s journey towards success is more rewarding then any paycheck.
