Fox brings to Frontgrade nearly 20 years of experience in corporate finance and strategy within the industrial manufacturing and transportation industries, which includes 13 years with General Electric.

“During the searches for our new COO and CFO, it was essential that our new leaders have the experience, agility, and tenacity necessary to drive and support the ambitious growth strategy of a relatively new technology company like Frontgrade,” said Dr. J. Mitch Stevison, President and Chief Executive Officer of Frontgrade Technologies. “Allen and Kevin not only possess these traits but both are experts in their respective fields with impressive track records. We’re excited to have them join our team.

“We’re also very grateful to Neil and Conrad for their contributions to Frontgrade, especially during the company’s early days of establishing itself,” Stevison added. “We wish them both the best as they transition into retirement.”
