Jim O’Connor

After graduating from the University of Nebraska, I began a career in the field of Electrical Engineering. During my Engineering career I had the opportunity to oversee the construction and design of a number of large industrial facilities throughout the nation. My engineering experience allowed me to move into the management side of the business. When the opportunity arose for me to start a business of my own, I relied on my engineering and business experience to open the See The Trainer in Des Moines. See The Trainer has now been serving the metropolitan Des Moines area for over 10 years. As the medical industry has evolved there was a need for me to make changes to my skills as well. Combining my 10 plus years in fitting braces, I continued my formal education and training to become a Certified Fitter of Orthotics (CFo). I became accredited as a CFo by completing the rigorous process defined by the American Board of Certification in Orthotics, Prosthetics & Pedorthics, Inc. (ABC). I look forward to using my education and training to enhance the “Quality Of Life” of the customer’s that I will have the pleasure of working with in the future.

Customer service and serving the public is my expertise after working 25 years in the hospitality industry for a major hotel chain. I have managed departments that significantly impacted the profitability of a hotel. Upon joining See The Trainer-Iowa I now wear many hats. I believe that my Customer Service, training, sales and marketing background as well as my ability to manage a small staff contributes to my success at See The Trainer. As a native of Iowa I am at home living in Des Moines. It gives me great pleasure to be involved in community activities and to be able to share my expertise with those in need of the superior services that only the See The Trainer stores can provide.
