Meet the Team - #TEAMECONOCO

Dan has been with Econoco since 2005, and has been in the Store Fixture industry since 1996. He has over 30 years experience in graphic design and marketing.

  He is a native Long Islander, in fact, he grew up only a couple miles from our Econoco headquarters. As a teenager, he used to deliver pizza to the Econoco warehouse staff.

  Dan has too many hobbies to count. You can either find him in his small woodshop building furniture or at his backyard BBQ shack smoking a pork shoulder or grilling smash burgers! 

Whether it was my work in Writing, Investment Banking, or Graphic Design – it was Client Relations where I always found a common thread and seemed to be “at home.” I had the pleasure of connecting with Econoco in 2003 when they needed a leader in this arena, and I have been collaborating in Retail environments and at home with this family ever since.

I’m continuously motivated by the people in my life and my surroundings. I consider my family and children my #1 success story, but those that know me know I have an insatiable work ethic – driven by passion, perseverance, and connection to detail in all ways, to all things.

I am at my best when I am collaborating with our internal teams to lead with a solutions-focused mind set, knowing that together we propel success. I define that success when I am partnering with our customers and sharing a deep understanding of their goals and objectives to help exceed their expectations to achieve their own success stories.

Dana enjoys spending time with friends & family, listening to great music, photography and then scrapbooking all of it!  She grew up on Long Island and her favorite movie is, "You've Got Mail".

Jay has been with Econoco fulltime since the spring of 2019. He helps maintain our website content. Jay has an interesting backstory about his relationship with Econoco, in his words; "I've known Econoco since Barry gave me some hangers and garment bags back in college. I never had a better organized closet! I even had one with an elongated hook that fit in the palm of my hand for easy carrying. I don't think we sell that anymore. After graduation, Econoco sponsored our softball team for years. I'm still trying to find my softball jersey, not that it would fit. I was the starting catcher for the team the year we won the championship. It felt like winning the World Series!

I spent a few months working Hicksville after Hurricane Sandy. Barry was good enough to let me use an empty office since my office in lower Manhattan was literally under water. People are still laughing at me when I stayed late, got locked in and set off the alarm when I stepped out of my office. I had no idea I'd be back 10 years later.

After finishing my 21-year career at Standard & Poor's, Barry asked if I was interested in some part time work. I said yes, and the rest is history. Great people to work with and to cook for. I won the Chili cook-off contest against some tough competition and even won the Halloween costume contest with my colleague Christine. I'm grateful to Barry and Jordan for my second career and equally grateful for my now 12-minute commute!"

Jay tends to suffer as a New York sports fan of the Mets, Giants, Knicks and Rangers. Jay and his wife Lisa have two grown sons, Harris and Daniel. He enjoys tending to his vegetable garden every season. He tells us that he is a total Star Trek nerd and we say that he fits right in with most of the staff on that one. 

Jen started working with Econoco in the spring of 2021 as a procurement specialist. Jen tells us that she has, "11 years experience in the Retail store fixture industry with some experience now in the Mondo mannequin world, thanks to Econoco! I love working in this industry because I love to see how the end result whether it be Fixtures or mannequins can enhance the store's appearance and must importantly to attract customers to the product." 

Jen loves to escape by going to the gym to get away from it all, she also enjoys cooking, painting, family game night and watching her son play travel soccer. Her family welcomed a new member recently, an aussiedoodle puppy named Cooper who is super smart and uses the talking buttons. (Google it). Jen says she catches a lot of slack for telling people that her favorite restaurant is Olive Garden, her family calls it the OG and they all enjoy lots of family celebrations at the OG.

Jen tells us that she is, "self motivated, ambitious, driven and patient. I believe these are good qualities that are essential to success and growth. Even through the hardest times I've encountered i have always persevered, and i guess this comes naturally being a mother of two boy's, Adrian and Justin who I know depend on me. I want to demonstrate to them it doesn't matter how hard life hits you get up and you keep pushing forward!"

Jordan joined the staff full time in the summer of 2015. He has worn many hats here at Econoco. As a teenager, Jordan worked in the warehouses of Econoco. He's been around the company for a lifetime because he is now a third generation owner. Jordan's grandfather, Arthur, started this company. Jordan rightfully sits in the same office as his father & grandfather before him.

Jordan enjoys hiking, concerts and hanging on a beach. He loves to go to as many Phish concerts as humanly possible, ask him how many Phish concerts he has been to, we've lost track. When he finally gets to relax, it would be preferably on a beach probably in Montauk with his wife, Caroline and their two children.

She tells us, "As far as I can remember, I've always liked working with numbers. I feel that accounting is like telling a story using numbers. Numbers are everywhere! When choosing a major in college, Accounting was a no brainer for me. I've learned alot in my years of experence in the Accounting field. My role at Econoco has grown. I started out paying the bills (which i still do by the way) to ordering snacks and putting smiles are my co-workers faces! "

Nick became a valuable member of Team Econoco in August of 2011. He tells us, "My first jobs were all in the food industry. While studying at Seaford High I worked as a busboy, waiter, and line cook, and developed a love for food and the food industry.

While studying at Brooklyn Polytech of NYU, I developed a liking for technical drawings and design. I realized it to be an important bridge between the worlds of engineering and manufacturing. Econoco was my first job out of school. Most engineering students with no clear path may find themselves wondering if they'll build rockets. But they soon discover, just as I did, that 1001 other types of products require design and engineering as well. For me, it was retail fixtures and hardware. For the past 12 years, I've sharpened my skills as a designer, improved my ability to communicate details to factories through my technical drawings, and absorbed practical manufacturing knowledge. It's not rocket science, but you can do rocket science with it."

Nick and his wife have one young son and a dog named Winnie. Nick loves to be a teacher for his son. In his rare down time, Nick likes to build things, practice Martial Arts, Gardening, Hunting and Cooking. He says that he is a professional Empath. His favorite movie is, "A Clockwork Orange". Favorite food... Eggs. Any style.

She says her favorite food is any kind of Pasta followed by anything that is sweet. She enjoys watching, Married at first sight.  Sharon tells us that she is very, "quirky". She would dress up for Halloween every single day if she could. She also would sing and dance around the office at all times, but doesn't think her co-workers would  like it.

Sharon has been with us for over 17 years and retired from Econoco in 2021, but she missed us so much that she came back a couple days a week and we are very grateful that she is part of the team.

Sharon told us that her favorite vacation spot is any place that is warm! She lives in the beautiful Eastern PA. area, the winters can be rough, so we certainly understand why vacationing in a warm area makes sense. She also tells us that she is not a sports fan, but enjoys her 3 active cats which is all the sport she want's to handle.

Steven has been part of the Econoco procurement team since May of 2022. He says, "I've always worked in Supply Chain/Operations roles in the past. I mainly worked with domestic vendors so when I interviewed with Econoco and they explained that the company wanted to grow domestic capabilities I thought it would be a great fit. The snack fridge wasn't a bad fit either. I've enjoyed working here these past two years to continue to grow our domestic capabilities and offer our clients faster lead time for urgent projects."

When he is away from the office, Steven plays softball & hockey. His favorite teams are the NY Mets & the NY Islanders. He loves to vacation in the Cayman Islands or the Miami Area. He tells us, "I've applied to be on CBS reality TV show "Big Brother" and I'm determined to be cast one day. I'm convinced that I have a fool proof plan to win the whole game."

Tammy started with Econoco way back when, in July 1990 and is currently the longest running employee, she has been here with 3 generations of owners. According to our CEO, Tammy started here when she was 5 years old...LOL. Tammy tells us, "I've been a part of Econoco's challenges over many years and we've always succeeded as a family company. That's what I love about Econoco - it's family!"

After all this time, Tammy's is still always the first car in the parking lot in the morning. When she's not working, Tammy loves spending time with her two young nephews exploring Long Island through their eyes. During hockey season, Tammy enjoys keeping up with the NY Islanders. Her favorite show of all time is, The Game of Thrones.  Tammy says her favorite meal is Steak & Potatoes followed by cheesecake for dessert! When asked where her ideal vacation is, she says, "Anywhere with my feet in the sand and a cocktail in my hand."

Todd has been with the Econoco family since the spring of 2002 when we opened our Distribution Center in Hazeltownship, PA.

He is our Forklift operator and loader. Todd continues his great service with our family and we are very happy to have him.

Victor joined the Econoco team in the summer of 2023 and has been doing a great job for us picking orders for our larger truck orders. We look forward to his continued service with us.

He enjoys relaxing & watching his favorite sport of baseball. He loves vacationing in the Dominican Republic. One of his favorite movies is, Rambo. Victor said that he loves to cook and his favorite meal is Rice and Beans. I hope he brings some in for the rest of us! 

Vlad came to Econoco in March of 2003, at time when the company needed him most. He helped lead the company into the modern digital age. Vlad has a Master's degree in acoustics that includes a strong math and programming background which lead him down the Information Technology path.

Vlad likes to relax by playing guitar and banjo, which sometimes plays on his wife's nerves. Vlad mentions that his grandchildren are some of his favorite people to hang out with. One of his favorite vacation spots is the Alberta Mountains in Canada. He said he never met a plate of Ukrainian Borsch that he didn't like. He tells us that one of the most unique things about him is his hopeless optimism. 

Wil joined the company as a creative director in the summer of 2015. It was quickly realized that he was much more than that. Wil has broadened everybody's way of thinking around here. He brings many years of retail experience to Econoco.

Wil enjoys traveling the globe, seeing new places and experiencing new things. His favorite vacation spot however, is anywhere with a beach and crystal clear water. When he is home relaxing it is with his two shiba inu pups, Kobe Bryant and Bruno Mars. One of the unique things about Wil is that he is never on time, yet hates being late. His favorite movie is, The Devil Wears Prada and any video that Beyonce shows.
