Leadership Team

Powered by unrivaled industry expertise and visionary leadership, our team is your ultimate partner—guiding you toward greater profitability and sustained business growth.

At SEN, we understand the realities of kitchen and bath business owners, the employees who help power the business, and the companies they deal with on a daily basis. We also understand how the combination of design talent and business acumen are not always part of a kitchen and bath industry owner’s innate skill set.

SEN Design Group is the ultimate resource for organizations in the kitchen and bath sector, powered by experts with deep-rooted industry experience—spanning hands-on sales, successful business ownership, and exceptional business acumen. Put our team of knowledgeable and experienced industry leaders to work for your team, and see for yourself the difference we can make in your organization.

Our team has seen the spectrum of business challenges and lived through the cycles of industry expansion in good times and its contraction in difficult times. More than 30 years ago, SEN learned how other U.S. business categories such as appliances, electronics, and other kitchen and bath cabinet dealers in European countries, had far more profitable operations when they were members of a strategic buying group. The members’ businesses prospered when they opened themselves to engaging and learning from others. This prompted SEN Design Group to establish the first buying group in the U.S. kitchen and bath industry in 1994.

SEN currently has nearly 150 members nationwide and growing. It has more than 50 quality vendor brands in cabinetry, appliances, countertops, plumbing fixtures, decorative hardware, closets, lighting, bathroom products, flooring, tile, accessories, and business services who offer their products/services to SEN membership at preferred group rates.

It is the job of SEN’s leadership team to bring unique experiences and resources to its membership — and that is exactly what we do. In addition to the experience of our leadership team, no other industry group brings the benefits of a buying group together with the breadth of available business education resources, and the inclusion of innovative DesignAlign™ Selling System Technology.
