“All good things must end,” said Tim Fixmer, president and CEO of CCI Media, the owner of Woodworking Network.

After a stellar career serving suppliers to the wood products manufacturing and closets industry, Renee Stritar is retiring from Woodworking Network effective August 15th, 2022.

"Renee has developed a significant number of close friendships with customers over the years, all of whom will surely miss her intelligent advice, supportive spirit, witty sense of humor, and positive can-do attitude," said Fixmer. Renee first joined Vance Publishing in January of 1986 in a support role. She quickly moved into an inside sales position and then into territory management, where she mastered her unique selling and customer service style.

Renee plans to spend a great deal of time traveling and enjoying the outdoors with her family.

Woodworking Network also announced that Tom Cahill will assume Renee’s role in serving the needs of clients in the central US and Canada as the new Media Integration Manager for the territory. 

Tom has more than 20 years experience in ad sales and customer service in a variety of industries, including the building trades and distribution. 

"Please join us in wishing Renee the very best and in welcoming Tom into our woodworking community," said Fixmer.
