Doug is an OG, having been with Spartan since early 2008. From the start, his role has played an integral part in Spartan’s day to day operations, managing nearly half of customer service and making things happen with a smile and an easy going attitude.

Doug’s Spartan story is an office favorite, having landed this job by calling Kevin “Mr. Jablon” and vetting a position in Jablon’s company before he even created Spartan. At any given time in the office, you can almost always hear “Hey Mr. Jablon! It’s Douggie Fresh from the club!”

Ben keeps business humming leveraging his vast knowledge of Spartan’s inner workings. He spends 99% of his day on the phone taking names and making things happen.

As the man responsible for all Spartan’s big spenders, Adam hasn’t had a free minute since he joined the team in Spring 2014.

No matter the day, Katie’s got design on the brain. In the flooring industry, where a shade of gray can make or break you, Katie’s interior design background makes her a force to be reckoned with.

Outside the work life, Katie’s not afraid to keep it real. She loves to have a good time, but she’s got a lot to see and not enough days in the weekend.

Coming to Spartan after 8 plus years with Mohawk, Julie joined her #IRL partner Craig, in Spartan’s Nashville territory in Fall 2017.

A UT Knoxville graduate, Julie rocks some serious school spirit and loves cheering on her alma mater football team. She loves spending time with her two kids (she thinks Craig is okay too.)

After 23 years of marriage, two teenagers, and 17 years in the flooring industry, Craig has seen and dealt with it all. It’s going to take more than a crazy custom request to knock him off his feet. Whatever the project, whomever the client, Craig is the expert you want in your corner. No amount of time in the industry will make him stray from his daily goal: giving accurate, unbiased info to every client, no matter what.

Though Craig has a special place in his heart for Alabama football, he’s surrounded by UA all year ‘round. This alumna is proud to have his oldest rolling tide like Dad.

Cooch, Cooch Man, El Coocherino, Coochinator, Cooch Dog, The Cooch Monster – we could go on forever. As much as we love making up new nicknames for Scott, there is more to this equation.

When not cruising the Garden State making floor covering dreams come true, Scott loves hanging out with his two boys, Joey and Michael. Both are fanatical Giants, Yankees and LSU Tiger fans – just like their Daddy.

Started as an intern now he’s here in Richmond, ready to amp up Spartan in Virginia. After getting his rep feet wet in the Carolinas, Connor is excited to use his knowledge of the industry in his new territory.

Shawn’s not your ordinary southern gentleman. He’s been around the block, starting his flooring career straight out of college, moving from the East to the West, and back again. He knows this industry like the back of his hand, and we’re excited to have Shawn on board in the Carolinas!

Despite being a Carolina local for almost 20 years, Shawn holds strong to northern roots with sharp sarcasm. Good habits die hard.

A year into Spartan’s Midwest expansion, we’re excited to welcome new team member, Colin O’Donnell. Bringing seven years of flooring experience, Colin is ready to rock in his new role.

With a previous career as a middle school PE teacher and high school cheerleading coach, she brings energy, charisma, and some serious drive that comes in handy in her bustling rep lifestyle.

When she isn’t cheering on Da Bears, Da Hawks, Da Cubbies, or exploring Chicago’s latest and greatest restaurant, Mildren and her rambunctious puppy Dublin are out and about going to parks and running by the lakefront.

In August of 2012, Michael and Kevin Jablon joined forces to form Spartan Surfaces Midwest.  Currently Vice President of Sales, Michael’s background ranges from National Sales Manager to Independent Agent, Green Manufacturing Consultant to Healthcare Initiatives Coordinator. Blasek’s experience takes flooring professional to a new level.  As a published floorologist, Blasek wrote the talk and struts the walk.

Former all-nighter, Blasek has traded in his beer on a boat lifestyle for the dad life. Still one for extravagance, you can catch Mike around the Windy City making grand plans and buying sushi towers regardless of the size of his party. Lover of grand gestures, holder of positivity, and never fails to have the essentials (hairspray), Mike’s still the guy you want at the party.

With just over 18 months in the industry, Brady joined Spartan’s NY Metro team in Spring 2018.

Purcell has an undying love for Pizza and IPAs, but nothing compares to his love for Benson the Beagle. He gets a rush from the NY minute, but nothing beats blasting country songs in his Diesel Silverado.

He has a wife and two grown children, but the real ruler of the house is the family pup, Mrs. Bopperstein.

Almost a quarter century ago, Keith Knecht found his way into the flooring industry. Fuzzy stuff, hard stuff, shiny stuff, matte stuff – Knecht has been there and knows that.

After two years at HQ working on Spartan’s Customer Service team, Justin made moves to take his inside knowledge outside. Kicking off 2018, Gayo dove head first into dealer reppin’ and Philly livin’ and he’s in it for the long haul.

Justin loves watching college sports and he’s the first to get in on that fantasy league life, but his true love is golf. He’ll watch, he’ll play, he’ll buy enough polo shirts to fill a walk-in closet all by himself. Nothing beats a bright early start on the course.

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.

Whether you’ve known Spartan for years or this is your first introduction to our crew, it’s obvious we’re full of characters. DING. Bring in the ringmaster, Mr. Tim Dormer. Tim came to Spartan in January 2013 with the official title of “VP of Sales” i.e. manager of the troops.

Ray and his beautiful wife Misia like to unwind on the weekends watching their son Jake get after it on the soccer and baseball fields.  He can also be found experimenting with various flavors of vodka.  Needless to say, Szech makes a mean Orange Crush.

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.

Gail came to Spartan in September 2015 with over 30 years experience in the flooring industry. Focusing on Education, Healthcare and end users, Gail prides herself on her unwavering dedication to her customers.

Though Neil can sometimes seem shy, one night on the dance floor with Spartan was enough to let his wild side shine.  When hitting the streets of DC, Neil brings both sides of his personality to the table.

On weekends, Neil is all sports all the time. If he’s not watching his favorite teams on ESPN, he’s outside reminding the rest of us that we’re never too old for pick-up games.

With over 15 years in flooring, Spartan snagged this flooring aficionado in Winter of 2016. Coming from L’evate group, Suzy’s experience with Spartan brands makes her a force to be reckoned with in the DC Metro market.

McGarity occasionally exits the flooring world to take gold in Olympic swimming and volleyball! Well…her neighborhood Olympics! When she’s not kicking some community butt, she’s out walking her 14 year old yellow lab, Abby.

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.

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”.

Several years out from being fresh meat, Danny is now at the top of his surfaces game.  With the drive and energy of an untamed stallion and the teachings of DC’s finest reps, Danny has quickly learned the ropes of the flooring world.

After a long day’s work, Danny takes joy in the little things, like eating the brown crunchy pieces in Chex Mix, taking the outside blocks in a game of Jenga, and spending time with his cats, Tornado and Apple.

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.
