Over the course of his time as a mixer driver he was recognized as productive, efficient, dependable, and knowledgeable.  He quickly learned the products, the customers, and the formula for getting the concrete delivered in a safe and efficient manner.  In 2018, Erik expressed an interest in learning more about the dispatching position.  He would fill-in on Saturdays, afternoons, etc until he was thrust into the position full-time in May 2019.  It was a huge responsibility and Erik literally put the team on his shoulders and ran with the opportunity.  He continues to increase his knowledge of the products, admixtures, customer and employee relation skills, etc and as he sits in the “middle” he is central to dispatch communications and the sharing of resources to make sure the company as a whole gets through each and every day rather than focusing solely on “his plant”.  Erik holds the MCTCB field and plant certifications.
