Brian Endres's Bio
Hey! My name is Brian Endres, and I'm a born and raised Wisconsinite!

I look forward to creating long-lasting and mutually beneficial relationships with my customers
Nicholas Bryant's Bio
Hi there, my name is Nicholas Bryant and I am the Sales Manager for the Midwest Region of Verona Safety. I was born in Missouri but did most of my growing up in Racine, Wisconsin and still hold a special place in my heart for Lee's Deli and DeRango's Pizza. Following my high school graduation (GO PANTHERS!), I attended Southeast Missouri State University in Cape Girardeau but left school early to pursue a career in law enforcement. After a few years of working every weekend, every holiday, and far too much mandatory overtime; it was back to school. During this time, I managed bar at the Grand Geneva Resort and began my career in the safety industry as an independent contractor for Verona Safety. That was the tail end of 2006. Now, a little over 8 years later, I'm married with 3 children, earned a degree in Business Management from Cardinal Stritch University, and have really comfortable chair in my office. As for my actual position here at Verona Safety, for me it's all about building relationships, as I certainly don't adhere to the telesales approach so common within the industry today. While Zac does a great job with cataloging products on our website, I like to tell folks I am their catalog and website; my job truly is to make yours easier by ensuring company standards are met and OSHA compliance is achieved. If you happen to call the office or my cell and don't get an answer, you can rest assured I'm either fishing or planning another outing for my son's Cub Scout Den; during non-business hours of courseā¦those hours are reserved for golfing. If I can be of any help as it relates to safety and PPE, or if you want to swap fish stories, drop me a line; I'll call you back as soon as I put out.

Samie Gossfeld's Bio
Hello! I was born and raised in the backwoods of Dalton, Wisconsin, and am a proud graduate of Markesan High School. I relocated to Madison in the fall of 1999 to study marketing at Madison Area Technical College, where I graduated with an Associate Degree in Marketing and Applied Sciences. While attending school, I worked part-time for UPS, and subsequently gained my first legitimate sales experience while working for Champs Sports in Madison's West Towne Mall. After earning my degree, I ventured out on my own as an independent contractor, and spent a couple years running a direct sales company called SGM Marketing. I joined the Verona Safety team in 2009, which began my introduction to the safety industry as the company's warehouse lead. After spending more than a year learning the business from the ground up, I made the transition into my current role as National Sales Specialist based in our Madison office. I currently live on the east side of Madison with my wife Mel and our dog Woodson. Outside of work I enjoy playing softball and being a fan of Wisconsin sports teams. I am a dedicated member of the Verona Safety team, and will go the extra mile and beyond to support the success of you and your business!
