When I’m not selling gorgeous wide plank floors I’m cheering my son on at PeeWee Baseball Games and watching my little Princess at her dance recitals. I love international travel, good food, good wine and time at the lake.

I have been with Carlisle for more than two years now. My favorite floors are Birch and Antique Milled Barnwood. My favorite hobbies involve my family, the Red Sox, the Patriots, hunting and fishing. My most unique project that we crafted was a Herringbone Teak Floor with all 6" wide material.

Shanon Sterret
My name is Shanon, I’m in year number eight and I still love seeing beautiful floors come to life. No TV for me, so you can catch me outdoors, spending time with my sons Khodee and Kaleb, walking my German shepherd Bailey, cooking, painting, or reading a good book! When I become a millionaire I’ll explore the world!

Rick Menard
I have been with Carlisle for nearly 10 years now. I love working with folks on their houses, watching the project evolve into thier dream home. I always get great satisfaction getting photos from families that have remodeled a living room or den, with the kids and pets in the pictures. The appreciation of these clients is what keeps me excited day after day.

Peter Switzer
What's my favorite part of my job? Building friendships. I have built many relationships from working with builders, architects and even homeowners and have built some great friendships with these people. We often talk outside of work and our friendship extends to sending each other family Christmas cards.

It's great to work with each and every customer to help build his or her dream floor! Every project is custom and unique. For example, we crafted an Antique Ash with Driftwood Grey stain on it for a LEED™ home. I enjoy decorating a room, taking pictures and listening to live music! My favorite sports team… Virginia Tech Hokies.

Sharon Bondie
As a valued member of the Carlisle family, I sincerely do not look upon myself as a sales consultant but as an extension of a family specializing in distinctive, handcrafted floors from the center of beautiful old-growth trees. There is nothing better for me than being around my family and friends. I try to seize every moment to do this, while also enjoying hiking in the mountains, working out and just slowing down long enough to smell the roses of life.

I’ve been with Carlisle for more than 11 years working, in sales and sales management. I enjoy the people I work with and representing a wonderful product! I have three beautiful floors in my own home; Eastern White Pine, Antique Oak and Hickory. I love to bike, ski and spend time outside!

I have worked in sales at Carlisle for six years and am extremely proud of our company, our product and what it stands for. I love being part of a family-owned business and sharing in milestones with my friends and coworkers, like the birth of my daughter Lola! I also love the outdoors!

Scott Ogden
A true Midwesterner with deep roots in Ohio and Indiana, I am still a huge fan of the Buckeyes. I love to grill, with both charcoal and gas. I spend a fair amount of time sitting on the screen porch with my wife and a glass of wine.

Gary Ryer
11 years and running, I love working with a wide variety of customers from homeowners, architects and builders – many of whom I consider as friends. Helping them choose the floor that achieves the look and feel they desire for their homes while meeting their budget is the most satisfying part of the job. Outside of work I enjoy my family, gardening, cooking (and eating), art, music, home improvement, church and community work and sitting on my porch with a martini.

I began working with Carlisle’s flooring more than 10 years ago. In the last two years, I have made the transition from installing floors to design and sales. My favorite floors are Eastern White Pine, Birch and all of the antique reclaimed species. I think all projects are unique, but one project I love is a Cherry floor in a log cabin in Iowa, overlooking a dramatic panorama of the Mississippi River. Classic beauty.

Brian Graham
One of the great things about interacting with our customers is how individual each project is. Recently, I sold a job for the Home of Distinction in Highland Park, which is being broadcast locally on TV.

I really enjoy working with any customer who appreciates what we do and truly gets the value in our floors. I Love spending time hanging out with my two boys as well as skiing and playing golf. It is great working for a company and selling a product I sincerely believe in. I sleep well at night because of that.

Sarah Bergren
Hi have worked out of our Denver office for almost five years now. I work with a wonderful group of people here, and we all have a lot of fun talking about which floor would be our favorite. This is much like choosing a favorite child, and these days our Southern Longleaf Heart Pine is my leading contender. When I’m not helping my customers navigate through the flooring process, I enjoy spending time with my husband, our baby girl and our overgrown yellow Lab.

Robert Plut
I have been selling Carlisle floors since 2005 and have been working in our Denver showroom since June 2007. My favorite Carlisle floor is Eastern White Pine. I enjoy snowboarding, golfing, fishing and playing soccer in my free time.

Laura Leier
Every project is as different as all the people we have the pleasure of talking to daily; that keeps it fun and interesting. I once helped a person design his farmhouse (8"-20" wide Eastern White Pine,) he had a horse door cut out of a wall so his pet horse could move between his stall in the attached barn or hang out in the house too.

I’ve had the pleasure of working in sales for Carlisle for a relatively short period of time, and I love it! It’s wonderful to come to work and feel a sense of community and a shared passion for all that goes into handcrafting our truly custom, uniquely beautiful wide plank floors. I would have to say that my favorite memory so far is getting the opportunity to see just how beautiful a New England winter can be. I love being a part of the Carlisle family, and I can’t wait to see what the future has in store.

I am Regional Manager for Southern California, based at the showroom in West Hollywood. Born and raised in historic Concord, Massachusetts, I attended Ohio-Wesleyan University and was an All-American lacrosse goaltender. Before joining Carlisle in 2006, I ran an organic fertilizer company in New Hampshire.

Hard to believe that seven years have gone by since I first began this adventure with Carlisle back in New Hampshire. Since that moment, I have worked in three of our different design centers, from our Mill in New England to the mile high city of Denver to now our design center in West Hollywood, and have been privileged to have worked on thousands of projects nationwide. To this day, I still get a kick out of helping our clients realize their vision… helping them design and craft a beautiful floor that they can create their own lasting memories on. When I am not here at the showroom, I love exploring this majestic planet of our ours, reconnecting my spirit with nature by engaging in outdoor activities with my best friend, my wife, and as well the two of us creating culinary concoctions in the kitchen.
