Meet Shanell Lewis!

This week we would like you to meet Shanell Lewis!  Shanell is our GM Parts Coordinator at the Cincinnati, OH branch.

Shanell had originally applied for a position at a staffing agency but when she went for the interview they told her they actually had another position that was better suited to her qualifications. They thought she’d be a great fit for our company – So, Shanell decided to go for it… and here she is 6 years later!

Shanell and her husband Aaron were married on February 26, 2011 after being together 10 years!!  (Congratulations!) They have two children together – Jaylin who’s 9 and Jordin who’s 8.  As a family they enjoy spending time together and taking turns enjoying each other’s hobbies.  Jaylin loves to read so she reads to them as a family and Jordin is really into Marvel comics – so they always have to see the latest Marvel Comic movie.  Aaron is really into football– Shanell likes to watch it with him (Cincinnati Bengals of course!) and said she’s actually learned quite a bit! Shanell said she also really enjoys reading in her free time, after being in school for the last two years she hasn’t had a lot of time for leisure reading – she’s done now and can’t wait to start a good book! They recently took a fabulous family vacation to Sea Grove Beach, FL and had a BLAST!  They would love to make it an annual trip.

Shanell also is an online Supplemental Educational Services (SES) tutor for students who attend schools that have not performed well on the Ohio Achievement Test (OAT) or the Ohio Graduation Test (OGT). SES provides assistance with reading, language arts and mathematics to the lowest-achieving students from low-income families who attend a Title I school in the second year of School Improvement or higher

She says the most rewarding thing about her time with MH Equipment has been the personal growth she has seen within herself.  Completing her Bachelor’s Degree in Organizational Management was a huge accomplishment and she thanks the many people within the company that provided advice on different assignments.

Shanell’s strong points are definitely her ability to build effective relationships with her co-workers and customers and she has a keen sense for resolving business issues.  She says the thing she likes most about working at MH Equipment is definitely the people and the mission of the company.
