I am the Product Manager at New England Office Supply. I grew up in the office products industry and have always enjoyed learning about new office products. I am a bit of a workaholic, enjoy a good laugh and like to have fun in whatever I do. When I am not working, I enjoy spending time with my with my wife and college age boys playing golf, fishing and following the New England sports teams. I coach a Youth Hoop basketball team who I call “my boys”. I enjoy traveling and would one day like to return to Portugal and Spain.

I am Marketing Coordinator at NEOS. I am a bit of a jack-of-all-trades and went to school for Public Relations, Psychology, and Graphic Design… let’s just say I like to dabble. I consider myself to be a quirky individual. I try to make it a point to do something creative every day. I think it is important to be able to laugh at yourself and to have one really good laugh every day. I enjoy traveling, reading, art and design, and anything to do with summer.

I am Vice President at New England Office Supply. I have worked in the office supply industry over 30 years and still manage to learn something new every day (some call this early Alzheimer’s). My favorite activity is taking trips with my wife Barbara, and son Dennis (VPjr) who keeps me young with constant laughter and inspiration. When I have time I also enjoy playing tennis and my guitars.

I am Marketing Coordinator here at NEOS. I’m an avid New Englander – huge fan of the four seasons, Fall being my favorite. I love to travel, play volleyball, spend time with family and friends, and hang out with my little spit-fire puggle, Ramzey. My favorite TV shows list has dwindled quite a bit now that Lost, 24 & The Hills are no more, but I also enjoy Modern Family, Grey’s Anatomy & Private Practice.

Hi there, Just ran across your blog about Recyclart of which I am a big fan. Given the synergies, I thought you might also like to check out ReUse Connection. We are doing something very similar to Recyclart except that our wikipedia-style website (launch by end of this year) will be a database of reuses so you can look up any item (e.g. shoes) and see how people reuse shoes from all around the world. It will include social network features so that users can exchange their ideas with others.
In the meantime, we have a big community on Facebook (www.facebook.com/reuseconnection) where you can see what we are doing.
Be happy to tell you more if you have any questions.
Keep up the great work and have a good week.

Thanks for commenting Ian! We will definitely be sure to visit your page for future recyclart inspiration. Looks like you have quite the following! We’re seeing more and more recycled products emerging in the office supply industry – from pens and chair mats made out of water bottles, message boards made from tires, to milk jug binders, it seems like the possibilities are endless.
