Meet the Team

Work should be fun. We make it that way.

Our people make us who we are. We are a team full of personality. We love sarcasm, a good hard laugh, and belting it out to Miley Cyrus. We have accents, babies, and rides full of samples. We know how hard you work. Sometimes it's nice to step back and enjoy some human interaction. We want to be the external fun that breaks up your day. Check us out. Give us a call. We'll be right over.

Kevin Jablon

In 2007 Kevin jumped ship from the corporate world with dreams of what Spartan could be. Jablon's first priority was people - the hunt began. Over the past five years, Kevin has partnered with the best sales representatives from New Jersey to Virginia and everywhere in between. For those of you who are curious, the name Spartan was born from Jablon's alma mater, York College, where he and now several of our employees studied.

Kevin is always on the move. From running a business to his love for his wife and four children spare time is merely a mirage.

Joe Blodgett

Blodgett is a bulldog. Regardless of the task Joe gets it done – quickly and effectively. Joe called on Spartan for several years before being recruited to the team in 2010.

Joe has a Pug named Ugh and a beautiful baby girl named Delaney. He is a huge Redskins fan and can belt it out to every song on the American Top 40 with Ryan Seacrest. Joe is an amazing singer

Danny Boyle

Danny was born and bred in flooring. His father, who owned and operated a floor covering company in upstate New York, had him working on job sites by the age of eight. At Spartan, we all know Danny as our hardwood guru. From application and installation to aesthetics and performance his brain is the world wide web of wood flooring.

Danny is half twelve, half eighty and sometimes somewhere in between.

Phil Carey

Phil came to Spartan at the start of 2010 with an extensive dealer background. Carey is a valued trouble shooter on job site variables from installation to maintenance.

Phil loves pop culture and any show on ABC Family. He spent eight years as a lifeguard in South Jersey saving lives and making girls swoon. Phil is now a loving husband and father of two adorable little girls.

Kevin Dunn

Kevin found his way into the flooring industry in 2005 after working for Loudon County school district teaching physical education and health. Dunn enjoys cruising around his DC territory ending the day with a drink and view with clients at the waterfront.

Kevin is an expert dodge ball player and is well prepared to teach his two little ones the values of "saying no".

Anthony Ferrante

Anthony, a native Long Islander, moved to Maryland and started his flooring career in 2005. Coming from ten years in the investment banking world, Anthony was well prepared for the fast paced world of interior specification.

At first, Anthony's clients thought he sold caulk, rather than cork. Today, Ferrante tells himself he is starting to lose his New York accent, but we'll let you be the judge.

Doug Fulmer

Doug took the flooring industry by storm in the mid-eighties. Since his debut, he has worked with several reputable firms making the move to Spartan in early 2011. Having previously had only one product in his bag, Doug is swimming in the great flooring alternatives at his fingertips.

Doug ends each day with some physical activity. From running to lifting, basketball to softball, tennis to a round of golf, Fulmer enjoys staying on the move.

Bob Kern

Bob is Spartan's resident Mr. Fixit. Having owned his own home improvement company for fifteen years he is well versed in Murphy's Law. Bob can answer any installation question with the snap of a finger and will diagnose the source of a problem before you know what hit you.

Bob unwinds from the chaos of each day relaxing by his above ground pool sipping on vodka lemonade.

Chuck Schillaci

Chuck is a sponge for information. He came to Spartan in January of 2011 after eight years in concrete self leveling. Nine months in he can spout off technical information like he has been here for years.

Chuck is spunky and loves his oatmeal lumpy.

Tanya Edmondson

Tanya is the woman behind the money. Coming in, going out, she calls the shots. In her spare time, Tanya enjoys bank reconciliations, financial statements and any bottle of wine – just as long as it isn't empty!

Beyond Tanya's eclectic passion for numbers and money, she is a daughter, wife and mother.

Ben Garback

Ben is the master of purchase orders and dealer questions. He spends 99% of his day on the phone taking names and making things happen.

Ben likes spicy chicken and his favorite cocktail is a Gin & Tonic. Ben enjoys live music and is allergic to peanuts. Ben has a dog named Walter Sobchak. Ben loves Walter.

Doug Hentz

Doug has been with Spartan since early 2008. From the start, his role has played an integral part in Spartan's day to day operations.

Doug is extremely well spoken and charismatic. He's drawn to excitement and thrives under pressure of a good challenge. Fun is on the top of his list. Under the opinion that life is deceptively simple yet endlessly complicated he believes good luck is a product of skill and dumb luck is a product of chance. Good luck to all

Meredith Powell

Meredith is a self-proclaimed gypsy, having moved up and down the east coast since childhood. After relocating to Baltimore, she landed at Spartan in early 2011.

Meredith loves everything creative and is having a ball telling Spartan’s story and spearheading our marketing efforts. She is a sucker for infomercials, believes treadmills are for rodents, and puts peanut butter on everything.
