Initially hired by Childress Klein in March 1990 as a Life/Safety Officer, Gene transitioned to CK’s Parking Operations Manager position in 2005 after a long career with our Security management team. His extensive security management background, and well as his intimate knowledge of security technology has made him the ideal fit and nearly twenty years later he continues to provide management and oversight of a parking team of 9 full-time employees and 5 part-time employees.

Gene’s day-to-day tasks include conducting daily safety and inspection checks of the facilities, as well as developing and maintaining vendor relationships. He is also responsible for creating and implementing operating and procedural guidelines for the department with regards to cash handling and reporting protocol.

His unparalleled success in multitasking, customer service and attention to detail has contributed to Gene having the sole responsibility for scheduling and carrying out special event parking for events being held in Uptown Charlotte (i.e.sporting events, concerts etc).
