RON SABETTA
. Ron is a lifelong woodworker and sits on the board of directors
of the Florida Chapter of AWI. When not busy running Resource: Engineering,
he can be found in his home shop building antique reproductions,
wood carving or just checking items off his "honey do"
list. In addition to his interests in woodwork, Ron is actively
involved in animal rescue.
ALAN KENNEDY
. Hailing from Yorkshire, England, Alan has been in the millwork
industry for 26 years. (Is it really that long?) Like his father
before him, he has always had an interest in anything to do with
wood. Now living in the sunshine state, he loves to ride his motorcycle
and take canoe trips down the river with his family.
CONNIE IJAMES . Connie, shown here with Salty, a rescued stallion.
She has had the opportunity to rescue and find homes for abused
and neglected horses and other critters for many years. At right
is Orions Twist, six months old and very photogenic!
MARK CHRISTIANSEN . works to support his car habit (shown here
in his natural environment). He has 30 years of drafting experience
in all phases of architecture, and a long history with Ron Sabetta.
He and his wife also rescue Corgies and other animals in need.
MARK SULLIVAN . Mark (shown here with his two kids, Coda and
Sage) enjoys outdoor activities including hunting, fishing and watching
Kasey Kahne (who sadly crashes most of the time this unconventional
year) on TV or attending NASCAR races with his fiancée and
redneck friends. NEVER does he street race with his 450+ bhp '03
SVT Cobra Mustang, even though he usually gets tested by "ricers"
on a daily basis! Going on seven years of working at Resource:Engineering,
Mark has come to enjoy his second family of co-workers and his second
dad, also known as "boss." The complexity of the job and
communication with our clients are benefits that will keep this
woodworker around for many more years to come.
CHRISTOPHER McVEY . Transplant from the Florida Keys after serving
as a nuclear operator in the Navy, Chris found his way to Gainesville
where he has embraced the rural life. After a long day of battle
with managing the company's CAD system, he often finds refuge working
with his horses, raising his goats, or running off to escape to
a cabin in the woods with his family. His other hobbies include
combat robotics, distributed solar power generation, metal fabrication
and generally living life as a high-tech redneck.
GREG MULVIHILL . Greg's outside interests include sailing, live
music, motorcycles and traveling. Past experience in stonework,
residential/commercial construction and marine design give him a
wide range of disciplines from which to draw (a little drafting
humor, there). Resource Engineering provides a nice platform from
which to exercise both his problem-solving abilities and creativity.
JAMES PURCELL . James was trained as a draftsman, and previous
jobs have given him practical, hands-on experience in various construction
trades and valuable pre-fabrication millwork experience. He enjoys
the challenges of detailing unique millwork projects for a variety
of clients. He says he also used to have hobbies, but these days,
woodworking has been eclipsed by changing diapers and making bottles,
home repairs take a back seat, photography has taken on a much more
documentary format and most of his "free time" is spent
enjoying time with his wife and two young sons.
JOSH McLAMB . Josh is a graduate of the University of Florida's
Architecture Program as well as the Vicenza, Italy's Institute of
Architecture. He joined us after working for an architecture firm
in Manhattan for two years. As a Florida Gator fan all his life,
he spends most of his time watching Gator football and basketball
and enjoying the teams' recent successful national championships.
FRANK SAFFIOTTI . Frank, a native of Brooklyn, New York, and
now living in sunny Florida, enjoys riding his Harley, deep-sea
fishing, and performing with his band, the Frank Saffi Band. He
has been active in the woodwork industry since 1964, "the stone
age, when all you needed was a pencil and a T-square." Frank
is a veteran of some of the largest woodworking companies, and has
extensive experience in all aspects of the industry. He enjoys the
challenge of detailing the most complicated and demanding projects.
TIM NEWTON . Tim's varied background of CAD design and drafting,
construction estimating, home automation and networking, computer
programming, and CATV network design has served him well in transitioning
to his position at Resource: Engineering. Away from work, he spends
quality time with his computer and his car . . . a 2005 Neon SRT-4
ACR. He likes to tour the southeast, where there are a lot of winding
roads to make driving fun.
TONI TREGEAR . Toni's previous experience is in graphic design
and computer systems installation and training. Her current duties
are taking care of our computers and whatever else needs to be done
administratively. She has a long list of interests and hobbies,
like knitting and crochet, photography, crafts of many kinds, reading,
and making sure Ron has a vibrant honey-do list. Much of her free
time currently is spent on Great Pyrenees rescue.
