The Trade Table Team
Forrest Webber - Founder
The Trade Table was born at the end of the owner, Forrest Webber, time at JPMorgan, where he was a Data Domain Architect. He wanted to get out of the banking industry and into a role he felt would develop him more as a person and give him life-long skills, so he started looking into trade professions. Ultimately, he decided to become an electrician and began the apprenticeship journey - He likes to think he is the first-ever JPMorgan employee turned electrician.
On the journey to becoming an electrician apprentice, he was browsing through trade profession websites for inspiration on what trade to pursue. He soon realized no online trade supply store was built for the everyday homeowner. And thus, The Trade Table was born.
Forrest has since retired from being an electrician and focused on building The Trade Table.
John Serrano - Lead Operator
John is the Lead Operator of The Trade Table. John joined the team in November of 2022 and hasn't looked back. John brings a litany of skills, including, but not limited to, customer service, product uploads, advanced SEO knowledge, and, most importantly, product knowledge. John has quickly become an expert in several product categories on The Trade Table and will continue growing. John is the go-to guy on the internet for categories like Mini-Splits, Fireplaces, and Kitchen Appliances. John plans to acquire several certifications to bolster his knowledge of our products, more specifically he plans to take AHRI certification programs to increase his knowledge on heating, ventilation, air conditioning, refrigeration, and water heating products.
Paula Gomez - Social Lead
Paula joined the team in February 2023. Paula handles live chat, SEO blog optimization, and all of our social media content. Since Paula joined the team, we've seen a significant increase in our social media reputation.
Jon Hubal - Lead Writer
Jon Hubal is an expert writer when it comes to the trades. He is the lead writer for The Trade Table. While he can write about any trade topic - his best work is in landscaping, plumbing, and mini-splits.
He has crafted, what we believe, is the best resource for mini-split online. His attention to detail and research abilities make him the best writer for mini-splits online. His over 15+ years of experience in landscaping and plumbing give him a different perspective on mini-splits that you won't find anywhere else online. He will continue on his mission to answer every question anybody could ever have about mini-splits.
