Jarrod has been in the tool & die industry since 1984, starting as an apprentice in high school. After serving a 4-year apprenticeship, he received a Journeyman Tool & Die Makers certificate.

In 1989, he was hired by Sunrise Tool & Die, Inc. as a Tool & Die maker, where he built and repaired plastic injection molds. He held several key positions there, including running the wire EDM and CNC wire EDM department. In 1996, he was promoted to the position of shop foreman, where he coordinated the flow of work through the shop by directing and overseeing employees. During this time Sunrise began to explore and later committed to becoming ISO 9000 certified. Jarrod served as a fact finding team member and later was instrumental in developing policies and procedures that resulted in Sunrise becoming certified in 1998.

In 1999, Jarrod began a new position as a Sales Engineer for the company. This position involved being in constant contact with existing customers during the production of tools. It involved using his tool & die making skills to assist the customer in building the mold that will serve their needs, beginning with the design of the mold all the way through the process to inspecting the parts that the mold produces.

Jarrod joined SunRon International, LLC at its inception in November 2006 as a member of the sales staff. His knowledge and background give our customers a level of support that they do not find anywhere else.
