Fred is like your favorite uncle in the family. His laugh is contagious, he gives us the best advice, and he’s an extremely helpful and wholesome guy. Fred, A.K.A the ‘laminator master’, has been the Production Manager of our team since December of 2009. We call him the ‘laminator master’ because that’s his favorite machine and he laminates all of our products wonderfully.

Q:  So Fred, what is your favorite aspect of production here at Magnets.com?

A:  I love that I’m my own boss. My machines never let me down and if there is a slight hiccup, I am the only one who knows how to fix it. They’re like my children!  

Q:  We’re always amazed on how you handle these machines, have you always worked with print machinery?

A:  I certainly have. I’ve always been a hands-on type of guy, and ever since my first job at a printing company, I realized how much I love the print industry. The power and speed of the machines never cease to amaze me.  

Q:  What are some of your favorite hobbies?

A:  I love to go fishing, it’s my time to meditate with the tranquil and relaxing sound and motions of the water. I also love my football – GO JETS! Most of all, I like to go see my favorite rock bands play live.

Q:  Fred, now that you are recently engaged, are you excited to get this new chapter of your life rolling?

A:  Quite frankly, I’ve waited to find someone like her for a long time and I am super excited to spend the rest of my life with the woman of my dreams. We will be moving to Brooklyn soon and I can’t wait to see what life has in store for me.  

Congrats Fred! We wish you and your new fiancé tons of love, health and happiness.
