I am excited to leverage and expand on that success.”

He holds a Bachelor’s of Science degree in Management Information Systems and Services from Clarkson University in Potsdam, New York.
“Jeff is truly devoted to excellence. He has many years of senior leadership experience in the manufacturing software industry with a strong background in product management and the development and delivery of cloud-based solutions,” said ECi’s President and Chief Operating Officer, Trevor Gruenewald. “His skillset and experience put him in a unique position to solidify and expand our leadership position in the growing SM manufacturing market.”
