Freeh began his journey in industrial distribution and manufacturing when he took a job as a sales engineer for a pneumatics company in the Philadelphia area. “In my varied career, I was fortunate to serve in wide range of sales and operational positions, including COO and CEO. At the end of the day, I am a recovering sales guy. My passion is (to) create new and unique ways to help customers … .”

He said his personal life “revolves around my wonderful wife, Jan, our five children and our five grandchildren. Jan and I love to travel and spend time with our family. We recently were on safari in Tanzania, which was just a fantastic experience. I am also a recovering musician so I hope to be back working as a musician when I grow up. I also enjoy golf and photography.”
