Fans of the beaver – never say die.

Save the Mammals, a national proactive wildlife organization dedicated to animal heritage projects, this week announced its intention to reintroduce beavers in Ohio.

The other three areas are Ripley, near the Ohio River in southwestern Ohio; Barnesville in southeastern Ohio; and a yet-to-be named area in northeastern Ohio.

Where are you right now?
Rochester Hills, MI

Tell me about your job.
I am a sales account manager for Falken Tire.  I sell passenger, light truck and commercial (semi) tires to wholesalers and retail stores in Eastern Canada (Ontario to the Eastern Seaboard) and in the US (OH, KY, WV, PA & western NY).  My job is mobile so when I am not traveling to meet with clients, I can typically be found working from my home office or occasionally from Common Grounds!
