Dave steps into the role of In-House Service Technician at our Appleton Service Center, bringing a wealth of hands-on experience and leadership to the shop floor. He’s a U.S. Marine Corps veteran and ASE Certified Master Technician who’s been turning wrenches and keeping trucks mission-ready for over two decades.

Before joining USSI, Dave served as Shop Supervisor at Michels Corporation, Technician at Altec, and Assistant Service Manager at Ditch Witch. He got his start with a degree in Automotive and Diesel Technology from UTI, which he put to work in GM dealerships before transitioning into utility equipment. His Marine Corps service as a Diesel Technician and Shop Supervisor earned him several commendations — and our respect.

Dave and his wife of eleven years live in Neenah with their seven-year-old daughter, Emily. When he’s not keeping fleet trucks battle-ready, Dave enjoys woodworking, hiking and biking with his family, and collecting one of the most unique hobbies we’ve heard in a while — vintage alarm clocks. He’s got more than 40 in his collection and counting.

Dave’s commitment to service, sharp technical skills, and rock-solid work ethic make him a perfect fit for the USSI crew. Welcome aboard, Dave — we’re proud to have you with us.
