Mandy Poweski
Bit O' Everything
When you look up "Jill of all Trades" in the dictionary, it says "See also: Mandy Poweski"
That's the best way to describe Mandy, and also explains why JCL Energy brought her into the fold. Graduating from Kent State University in 2007 with a degree in Business Administration / Marketing, Mandy brings a multitude of experience with her. Before entering the electrical industry, Mandy worked in various large, full-service advertising agencies throughout Ohio and excelled in operational support for all departments within.
Entering the local electrical industry four years ago, Mandy brought that same tenacity to both the Rental and Purchasing aspects of the business, but not exclusively to just those. JCL brought her on in August 2021, and the reason her title is "Bit O' Everything" is because that's exactly what she does for JCL Energy, and it's customers. A little bit of everything.
When not keeping us all in line, Mandy resides in Warren, Ohio with her husband Bobby and their two beautiful daughters - Vienne and Isla. She's a big health / fitness nut and also enjoys being outdoors and cooking.

Jason Fellows
Creative / Marketing
If JCL Energy was a house party, Jason would be the one off playing tug-of-war with any dogs he could find.
He most enjoys "behind the scenes" work where he can be creative and use his graphic design skills most effectively. Jason was born and raised in Youngstown, OH. He earned his bachelor's degree in graphic design from YSU in 1999, and began his career working in local advertising agencies. Overall, he has over 20 years of experience in the graphic design industry.
Jason joined the JCL Energy team in April of 2019 and worked hard to help build the JCL Energy brand from the ground up. What he enjoys most is the opportunity to work for a company where he has the ability to lead the creative process.
When he isn't at work, Jason is a sucker for a good sour beer or hard cider and enjoys music, hiking, "annoying" his girlfriend Lynn, and cruising with the doors off on his Jeep.
Lynn Dula

A former kindergarten teacher, she tackles her work with the energy of a five year old on the playground- ready to take on new challenges and run with them!
