SALES


Cindy Severson - Owner/Sales:
ph: (360)816-2129  
cseverson@cascadefa.com

Cindy started this company in 1978 with little more than a knowledge of the industry (from an installation point of view), a small corner in a stationery store for her office, and a huge desire to make her customers’ homes beautiful for a reasonable price. One of her greatest talents lies in taking the existing along with the new and pulling everything together. Her number one goal has always been to make sure her customers are happy.

Family is one of Cindy’s greatest joys. You can see the happiness in her eyes when she is surrounded with kids, grandkids and a gaggle of pets.


Sunny Parsons - Owner/Managing Partner :
ph: (360)816-2141 
sparsons@cascadefa.com

Sunny literally grew up in this industry. His apprenticeship started at the tender age of two when he went out on a carpet installation with Cindy, his mother. Growing up, he spent most of his summers working in the family business. When Sunny was nineteen, he decided to devote 100% of his focus to the floor covering business to see what would happen. As it turned out, Sunny became Cascade’s top sales associate after a year or so. He continued to work very hard to learn every aspect of the business and joined his mother as a partner in the business in 2002.

Sunny also takes great joy in his family and loves to travel and camp with them. He also enjoys scuba diving, baseball, skydiving and the occasional hand of Texas Hold’em.


Paul Edwards:
ph: (360)816-2138 
pedwards@cascadefa.com

Paul brings over 22 years of experience to Cascade. Paul’s total focus and desire is to satisfy the individual needs of each customer. His goal is to ensure that the finished product encapsulates the client’s taste, personality and fashion.

As another very talented member of the Cascade staff, Paul is a great drummer, plays bass and guitar, and also writes music. Paul also enjoys art and discussing Bible topics with anyone who shares the passion.


Jewels Kirby:
ph: (360)816-2148 
jkirby@cascadefa.com

Jewels is fairly new to the working end of this industry. She did, however, pick up a lot of experience by osmosis through her father, Paul Edwards, a long-time floor covering installer and now one of our sales professionals. Jewels comes in every day with a great smile, a positive attitude and ready to assist customers with their selections and decorating needs.

Along with just about anything ‘outdoors’ you can think of, Jewels also enjoys a good puzzle now and then. But, her very favorite activity is spending time with her family.


Audrey Faulkner:
ph: (360)816-2124 
afaulkner@cascadefa.com

Audrey is another family member whom we convinced to come join us here at Cascade several years ago. We sent her out with Cindy to make sure she was learning from the best. She learned her lessons very well and went out into the world of floor covering with a great smile, an engaging laugh, and buckets of enthusiasm for helping her customers make their world beautiful.

Audrey’s first love is family, of course, and right behind that are some of those ‘living on the edge’ type things like sky diving and water skiing. Traveling rates pretty high in her book too.


Debbie Guenther:
ph: (360)816-2131 
dguenther@cascadefa.com

Debbie is another family member who decided that Cascade would be a great place to work and learn the industry several years ago. After working extensively with Cindy, her sister, she went on to become one of Cascade’s top Floor Covering Associates. Debbie wants everyone to know that if you can’t make it in to the store during business hours, she will be more than happy to make an evening appointment with you.

After family and grandchildren, Debbie’s love is gardening. Her yard is always full of spectacular color.


Warren Heater :
ph: (360)816-2132 
wheater@cascadefa.com

Warren is our Property Management Specialist and brings 20+ years experience in this industry to the table. He works very closely with property managers to ensure their floor covering replacement needs are met in the most efficient, cost and time effective ways possible.

Warren was born in New Zealand, but has spent most of his life right here in Clark County. With family being very high on Warren’s priority list, he enjoys spending time with his wife and daughter and considers those to be the best of times. After family time, he loves to golf, fish and work in the garden.


Katy Huennekens:
ph: (360)816-2134 
khuennekens@cascadefa.com

Katy joined us in 2004 as an assistant in the bookkeeping department. She learned everything so quickly and did such a great job that Cindy, one of the owners, decided that she wanted Katy as her personal design assistant. Although Katy enjoyed working in the ‘paper end’ of the business, she finds that she really loves working with Cascade’s customers, and is continually taking classes to learn decorating techniques as well as to increase her product knowledge. Katy does a wonderful job of assisting customers during their selection process. She is truly the kind of person who does a great job of whatever career she has chosen to pursue!

After family activities, Katy enjoys traveling, playing with her dog and shopping.


Shawn Medak:
ph: (360)816-2139 
smedak@cascadefa.com

Shawn began learning about this business more than twelve years ago when he started cleaning carpets with his cousin, Sunny Parsons. That experience gave them a great base knowledge about all the different types of carpet and how they wear and look over the years. After spending several years in the financial world, Shawn rejoined the family fold as a Floor Covering Specialist and works exclusively with our builder clientele. The builders appreciate Shawn’s eye for detail and technical expertise and are confident that they can rely on him to get the job done on their schedule.

Shawn is a great family man and when time allows, loves to play golf, poker, and is a self-admitted sports ‘fanatic.’ He also loves to participate in the ‘my team is best’ discussions that occur on a regular basis around lunch time.


Steve Moore:
ph: (360)816-2140 
smoore@cascadefa.com

Steve joined us in 1994 bringing with him a wealth of knowledge and experience ranging from ownership of a furniture store to ownership of a floor covering store in Helena Montana. Steve and his beautiful family relocated here to the fabulous Northwest in 1994 where he showed up at our door offering his skills and expertise. We hired him on the spot. Steve has since become our Insurance Specialist. His customer’s are almost exclusively families who have suffered some sort of home disaster and his number one goal is to make the replacement process as painless as possible for those families.

Aside from golfing and hunting, Steve also enjoys participation in the ‘my team is best’ lunch time event while wearing his ‘Cheesehead’ hat.


Lynn Olson:
ph: (360)816-2143 
lolson@cascadefa.com

Lynn has been in this industry for 23 years and strives to provide the best possible customer service for his clients. He will go to great lengths to make sure the installers have everything they need on the job for a great installation.

Lynn loves to play golf and says he tries to play at least twice a year. (We think about a hundred times a year would be more accurate). Lynn’s children are involved in sports which keeps him pretty busy acting as their personal practice trainer. Two of his sons are experienced filmmakers and insist that he ‘star’ in their Christmas movies. So far, the Hollywood offers are not pouring in, much to Lynn’s chagrin and our delight.


Barry Pieratt :
ph: (360)816-2152 
bpieratt@cascadefa.com

Barry joined us in mid-2006, bringing with him the many skills and experience he acquired while managing his own courier business for many years. After working primarily by himself during that time, he says the best part of his career change has been working so closely with others in a team oriented environment. Barry jumped right in, and learned everything very quickly. We are very happy to have him here as part of the Cascade Flooring America Family.

The pride and joys of his life are his wife and two daughters. When Barry can squeeze some extra time into his busy schedule, he enjoys mountain biking and coaching soccer, as well as playing soccer himself


Josh Taylor:
ph: (360)816-2133 
jtaylor@cascadefa.com

Josh has been in this industry for over eleven years and has become very passionate about making his clients’ homes beautiful and comfortable. He is also very passionate about his family and loves taking them for a ‘get-away’ on the beach. Josh is also very talented in the musical department. He is a great singer/songwriter and regales us with a tune now and then.

 

WAREHOUSE


Liz Wilder - Warehouse Manager :
ph: (360)816-2142 
lwilder@cascadefa.com

Liz just joined us and we are happy to have her and the eleven years of warehouse experience she brings to us. She supervises inventory, organizes and tracks materials as well as provides assistance to the installers as they load jobs each day.

As a native to this area, Liz and her family enjoy many local nature activities such as camping, clam digging and white water rafting. She definitely enjoys the ‘no fear’ side of life shared by many Cascade staffers, but Liz’s favorite activity is just being together with and enjoying her family.


Gordon Glem:
ph: (360)816-2142 

As our transportation specialist, Gordon drives all over the Portland/Vancouver area picking up materials for us every day. He is very thorough and calls us from the supply houses if there is even a hint of a material problem and manages to catch things before they become a problem. Always courteous, you can count on Gordon for a cheerful smile and greeting.

Gordon is very family-oriented and loves spending time with his wife and three children. He also enjoys any and all sports.

 

 

OFFICE


Rebecka Beehler - Operations Manager:
ph: (360)816-2126 
rbeehler@cascadefa.com

Demonstrating that this company is indeed all about family, Rebecka, our Operations Manger, is a sister to one owner and an aunt to the other owner. She has been here for most of the last 27 years on a professional basis.

Rebecka loves gardening with her husband, Jim, and son, Michael, almost every weekend throughout the summer. The three of them have created the most amazingly beautiful pond and waterfall which has taken several years to complete. She also loves traveling to strange and exotic places, mostly off the beaten path. Rebecka has always enjoyed learning about other cultures through the many exchange students that have stayed in her home over the years.


Anna Keller:
ph: (360)816-2147 
akeller@cascadefa.com

Anna joined us in the spring of 2006 and brings with her over 20 years of local industry experience. Anna is a great team player and sets very high standards for herself in the dependability, honesty, and accountability departments. Along with everyone else here at Cascade, Anna’s number one goal is great customer service.

Anna’s major priority in life is her family, which consists of her husband, Doug, and their two young adult children. She also loves a good remodeling project and walking Diesel, the family’s black Lab.


Karen Sachen:
ph: (360)816-2145 
ksachen@cascadefa.com

Karen has spent twenty-two years in this industry and is very knowledgeable about the many aspects involved in putting a quality project together. Karen’s abilities to adapt quickly and identify solutions make her an essential part of the builder team. She does a phenomenal job of managing huge amounts of materials and maintaining schedules, smiling sweetly all the while.

Karen’s love of family and decorating are evident in her office area where she surrounds herself with photos, plants, and decorative art.


Anna Jean Stull:
ph: (360)816-2123 cell:
ajstull@cascadefa.com

Anna Jean, our Claims Specialist, has been here for over sixteen years and is one of the best Consumer Advocates around. If a product is defective, she will go right to the wall with the manufacturer to make sure the customer is protected and happy with the results.

Anna Jean loves taking care of her family, walking in different neighborhoods all over the city, antiquing and babysitting her grand-puppies. She is looking forward to the day when she will be babysitting her grand-’babies.’


Linda Werner:
ph: (360)816-2136 
lwerner@cascadefa.com

Linda is our ‘jack-of-all-trades.’ If she’s not running reports or trying to figure out what is going on with someone’s computer, she’s crawling around on the floor plugging cables in here and there. She joined us in 1994 and has pretty much figured out the ‘nuts and bolts’ of our system over the years and is now in charge of software training.

Linda enjoys home renovation projects, reading, and tearing down, building and rebuilding computers for her family. She is considered the family ‘geek’ and tries to keep everyone up and running. Linda’s favorite times are those spent surrounded by family, including, and most importantly, grandbabies.


Yelena Zherebnenko:
ph: (360)816-2144 
yelenaz@cascadefa.com

Yelena joined us in the summer of 2005 bringing a variety of business experience with her, including four years of working in business services for the District Courts in San Francisco. She also had a familiarity with the flooring industry through her husband who has been installing floor coverings for many years.

Yelena says that since she has five children, she has no time for hobbies, but when she does manage to put a few idle minutes together, she likes to dabble in real estate.
