Steve Hand
Operations ManagerSteve manages our warehouse and handles operating the facility on a daily basis. Some such tasks include inventory control, ordering, shipping, tracking, and organizing samples. In addition to overseeing the warehouse, Steve has clients that he has been working with for many years. For these clients, he is part of the entire sales process from the sale to managing the installations.
Steve started working in the carpet field in high school, returned to it after college, and never looked back. He attended Lycoming College (Williamsport, PA) and received his Bachelor of Arts in Business Administration and a minor in Economics. His time as an apprentice taught him the basics and the different sides of the industry. From cutting carpet, pulling job materials, and loading trucks to scheduling installers, handling payroll and union benefits reporting to job estimating and proposals, Steve has done it all in his 35 short years in the industry.
When he’s not working, you can find him spending time with his family. He’s been married to his wife, Cindy for over 20 blessed years and has three wonderful children, Sarah, Melissa, and Scott. He also loves to run for fun and to stay in shape. If forced into a race it would be a 5K, however, it is on his bucket list to run a marathon. And while he has promised that he will be working hard for SIF for many years to come, one day in the future he and Cindy hope to retire to the beach where they can put their feet in the sand and enjoy the beauty of the shore.
