Buddy joined the Tnemec team in early 2013 covering South Alabama and the Florida Panhandle. Having spent more than fifteen years working his way up through the ranks of a specialty contracting firm in Pensacola, Florida before becoming a Tnemec representative, Buddy learned the ins-and-outs of many high-performance coating applications from a unique point of view. He has utilized his first-hand knowledge of the contractor’s perspective to forge strong relationships with high-quality applicators and to provide support to conscientious specifiers. Buddy has been an active member of CSI, ICRI, AIA and the Society of American Military Engineers throughout his career in the coatings industry.
