Autumn Johnson - (1/2/03)
In 1991 Autumn began her career as an inside salesperson at MCM Electronics.  It was there that she developed her customer service skills.  By developing new accounts and managing national accounts, she earned a number of awards for outstanding sales recognition.  Between 1996 and 1997 Autumn caught the attention of several distributors in the area and was recruited by Future Active and Marshall Industries.  The experience that Autumn gained by developing accounts at FAI was invaluable.  Joining with Marshall Industries was the natural progression of her skill development.

In January of 1998, Autumn joined Chemtronics as the Regional Manager of a 5 state territory.  Working directly for a manufacturer and being responsible for one of the biggest markets in the country was a big task.  She was able to grow sales and produce results for the company, even in down markets.  She has also been recognized for outstanding performance several times during her tenure.  She has been closely involved with all aspects of training distributor salespeople, end user calls, promotions, and product development.

In January of 2003, Autumn joined Electronic Assembly Products LTD with the intentions of providing the same high level of service to both customers and suppliers.

Jahnson Stone -  (12/29/08)

After attending Huntingdon College on a baseball scholarship, Jahnson returned back home to Huntsville, AL to work for Intergraph Corporation in their bare pc board facility. After 7 years @ Intergraph and various challenges within the company, he moved into sales with WESCO, formerly Westinghouse Electric Supply Co.  This experience in sales opened new doors and a level of interest that has continued to drive Jahnson today.
