Reflecting on 2025: Innovations, Growth & Progress

The progress we’ve made this year is just the beginning. With new technology, enhanced systems, and a deeply committed team, we are better equipped than ever to deliver exceptional flexible tubing solutions. At Finger Lakes Extrusion, innovation isn’t just a goal, it’s a continuous journey.

Customer Account Specialist

Natalie is a 2011 graduate of St. John Fisher College with a bachelor’s degree in business management and concentration in Human Resources. After 14 years of working in the Staffing Industry as a Recruiter and other various roles she was looking to switch gears and start a new career path.

President of Sales

Erica is a 2006 graduate of SUNY Geneseo with a degree in Mathematics with a minor in Business Studies. After 4 years in Corporate America working as an actuary, she was looking for a change.

All of these functions guarantee that no day is the same – her favorite characteristic of the job. Triathlons and lake life with her family are Erica’s most treasured moments.
