Meet Tredrick 👋

Tredrick has been part of the Essential Products team for nearly nine years. His experience and consistency play an important role in supporting the day-to-day work that helps our customers succeed.

Outside of work, Tredrick enjoys coaching, playing, and watching sports. He is a big fan of movies and shows like Rush Hour, Wedding Crashers, and The Sopranos. He is also a proud dog person and spends some of his free time pet-sitting through the Rover app.

Fun fact, his first organized sport was gymnastics. When he is not working or coaching, he enjoys traveling, with Denver, Madison, and Brooklyn among his favorite cities.

We are proud to have Tredrick on the Essential Products team.
