Hunt’s Chief Operating Officer Keith Colvard recently announced the promotion of Jim Monroe to Operations Manager of Hunt’s Duluth branch! Jim’s love of electronics started early, and he has always enjoyed the challenge of understanding circuits and troubleshooting things.
After high school, he joined the Air Force, where he worked as an Avionics/Electric Welfare technician for four years before transitioning to the 148th Fighter Wing in Duluth. He then spent 12 years as a field electrician and has been a part of Hunt since we acquired API Electric in 2012. He became Project Manager in 2019, and the rest is history!
