McDonough has been around for 132 years because of quality machinery and loyal customers - and also because of our people. Meet Mike McAvoy - our traveling sawmill encyclopedia.
Starting out on a mill floor right out of high school in a large softwood organization, Mike gained experience operating all machines, later moving to Management where he managed several different sawmill operations. After 22 years in sawmill management, Mike moved into a career in sales. After spending 12 years with an optimization company being trained on hardwood sawmill grade and sawing practices, Mike came on board at McDonough as our national sales manager. Mike's knowledge in mill flow, production and machinery ROI is second to none.
Married for 40 years, Mike enjoys spending time with his four grandchildren, hunting, and spending time outside.
