“Most of my career has been in a production environment,” he added, “which I enjoy because every day is different and another day to be better than yesterday.”
Working to make every day better than the day before is one reason Galvan customers come back again and again.
“Galvan is a growing company. Nharu’s focus on improving how we meet all our customers’ needs will help us keep growing into the future,” says company president Laurens Willard. “His years of of experience and capabilities make him a major asset for our customers.”
