Hello. My name is Lucas Derry and I love to be active outside and spend time with my family. In the summer months, you will find me riding a mountain bike, enjoying watersports (slalom or barefoot waterskiing and wake surfing), fishing with my kids, or relaxing around a campfire. In the winter months, when others look for warmth and sun, I look for snow and cold weather. Snowmobiling in Northern Wisconsin is a favorite activity for myself and my family. I’m also an instrument rated private pilot and fly for both business and pleasure. I believe in working hard and playing harder.

In my professional life, I am the President and second-generation owner of Header Die & Tool, Inc. My journey with the company started in 1994 as the guy that cleaned the sludge off the floor around the grinders. I received a BBA from UW Whitewater and came back to Header in 2002. I am very proud of the dedicated and talented team that we have in place. We believe in success and want to see our team, customers and vendors be successful by working with us. Continuing to learn and to give back to your community is very important to me as well, I serve on several local boards and belong to a CEO group in order to learn how to be a better leader for our company, our team members and our customers.

Hello, I am Tony Hrebik. I started with Header Die & Tool in 2011. I enjoy partnering with our customers to help them solve their problems. Working with a customer to improve the life of their dies is something that makes this job rewarding. Since my job does not allow me to take a picture of something I made, telling a success story is how I can best show a customer what I can do to help them.

An avid outdoorsman is how I can be best described. I enjoy hunting, fishing, hiking, biking, boating, skiing, traveling, cooking (especially grilling), and spending time with my boys when I am not working. Having two boys who love to do these activities with me makes them more fun.

I’m in the process of discovering life after children! I’m interested in traveling – both domestic and international. Like most people at this stage of life, my eyes are open to new things and old interests like cycling, hiking, camping and fishing. I have two, older, rescue dogs that I adore and try to include in my activities when possible! I also love to read and spend a lot of my free time researching topics of interest or curling up with a novel.

Hi. My Name is Jordan Hammil and I love spending time with my family. Family is important to me.

Hi, I am Simon, Rocket’s younger brother. I pretty much go everywhere Lucas and Rocket go. I really like to run around the office with Kona and Rocket, it’s sort of my job to keep them young. I get in trouble with Rocket for going in the shop while the team has their meetings, really, I just want to know what is going on. When I am not at work I like to hang out with the kids at home, play with my toys and bark at anything that comes close to my house.
