USON Promotes 18-year Company Leader to Global Sales Director

Dave Foran, President of USON, is pleased to announce the appointment of Gene Grilli to be USON Global Sales Director.



Originally hired by USON in 1994 after his accomplished 8+ year tenure as a nuclear submarine missile technician for the US Navy, Gene Grilli has served USON in numerous capacities since, including: launching the USON service department; becoming a Sales Engineer and later the Operations Manager of USON's Detroit Office; Midwest Regional Sales Manager; Global Automotive Manager; International Sales Manager; and now culminating in this promotion to Global Sales Director.

Commenting on the extraordinary value that Gene Grilli adds to the USON team and its ability to provide top tier service to USON customers, Dave Foran comments, "There are few individuals in the industry with the experience and range of market experiences that Gene possesses. His rise through the ranks is a reflection of that expertise and his steadfast determination to always find the best leak detection solution for each customer. Gene personifies the "can do" spirit that has enabled USON to be at the forefront of leak testing for nearly half a century. "
