Rod has been in the paper business for more than 40 years, working entirely with Kelly Paper, now Kelly Spicers.

Beginning with the retail store program when it included just eight locations throughout Southern California, Rod grew through the store management program, first as a District Manager then as Store Operations Manager in 1993.

Rod was instrumental in identifying new territories for the retail paper store model expansion, and was also involved in opening dozens of store locations since 1993.

In 2012, Rod moved into a Regional Manager position, working closely with the stores and customers to ensure the Kelly Spicers paper model continues to evolve and align with the ever-changing business environment of our customers.

In 2015 Rod became Vice President in charge of Sales and Store Operations, continuing to work with the Stores Managers and District Managers to ensure highest level of service possible to our customers.
