CEDARBURG Ron Roehl, president of CNC Solutions in Johnson Creek, recently was elected to serve on the board of directors of Cedarburg-based Partnership Bank.
Ron brings with him a strong spirit of entrepreneurship, creative collaboration and enthusiasm for sharing his knowledge and expertise with students and businesses, said David Braaten, co-CEO and COO of Partnership Bank. Everything Ron does from founding CNC Solutions in 2000, an automation engineering company; founding Indgrave LLC with his wife Patrice in 2013; and RJ Roehl Investments, a property management company he started in 2014 points to his hard work and dedication helping to strengthen businesses and our local economies.
Recently, Roehl was named the Johnson Creek Education Foundations 2015 Distinguished Alumnus. In addition, Roehl received the Business Friends of Education award from the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction for his volunteer efforts with Watertown High School Skills USA Partnership Team and his leadership with Watertown and other local High School Tech Ed programs. Roehl continues to be a mentor and volunteer for Super Mileage and Electrathon vehicle competition, Project Lead the Way, First Robotics, First LEGO League and Battlebots.
Roehl sits on the Automated Manufacturing Systems Technology Advisory Committee at MATC in Madison. He also serves on the MadREP Board, an economic development partnership for Wisconsins eight-county Madison Region with a vision to create a dynamic environment where people and businesses thrive. In addition, he is a member of MadREP Business Education Collaborative, a sub-committee of MadREP that focuses on business and education working together to develop curriculum for the future workforce.
I am honored to have been chosen for membership on the Partnership Bank Board, Roehl said. This is a new adventure for me. My hope is to bring a manufacturing perspective and guidance to decisions being considered by the board.
Recently, the U.S. has seen a 115-percent increase in manufacturing reshoring from Asia alone, he added. To meet demands, businesses are again investing in growth. Partnership Bank must be there to support small-to-mid-sized businesses. Community banks are the nations number-1 source for providing Main Street America with access to affordable credit so they can grow and create new jobs.
Roehl and his wife Patrice live in Watertown. They have two grown sons, Cory and Cameron. In his spare time, Roehl enjoys mountain alpine and glacier climbing, traveling, hunting, fishing and spending time with his family.
