ALLIE SHERWOOD
Office Manager/CFO
Allie serves as the Office Manager and CFO at Michael’s Office Furnishings, where she oversees both day-to-day operations and the financial health of the company. She keeps the organization running smoothly by managing vendor relationships, streamlining internal processes, and supporting the sales and design teams. On the financial side, Allie uses QuickBooks to handle budgeting, invoicing, payroll, and reporting — ensuring the company stays on track and continues to grow.
Known for “bringing order to the chaos,” Allie makes sure everything behind the scenes is taken care of so the team can focus on creating beautiful, functional workspaces for clients. She thrives in fast-paced environments and takes pride in being the person her team can rely on to keep things organized, efficient, and moving forward.
Outside of work, Allie is a proud mom to three wonderful kids — two boys, ages 10 and 3, and a baby girl age 1 who keeps everyone smiling. When she’s not spending time with her family, you’ll most likely find her at the barn. Horses have been a lifelong passion, and riding remains one of her favorite ways to unwind and recharge.
Balancing work, motherhood, and her love for horses keeps Allie busy — and she wouldn’t have it any other way.
JAMES ENGLISH
Workplace Consultant
James has enjoyed serving customers most of his working life, from a UPS Driver to a Computer Technician, and several other gigs along the way. He owned his own service business in Medford, Oregon for 10 years before moving to Redding in 2013. He takes pride in delighting his customers with extraordinary service, so when the opportunity to serve the Redding community as a Workplace Consultant at Michael’s arose in early 2019, it was clearly a perfect fit.
James grew up in the Bay Area, and went to school in Portland in 1978, where he met the love of his life. They were married several years later, and recently celebrated their 39th anniversary. He enjoys being a father of four and a grandfather of three. His hobbies include gardening, kayaking, hiking, and US History. James is a lifelong learner, and he is currently working toward certification as a Chair Assessment Specialist after obtaining his certification in the use of CET Design Software. While he aspires to become a top-notch Workplace Design Consultant and Ergonomic Consultant, his greatest ambition is to be a man after God’s heart in all he does.
PAUL BRYANT
Service & Installation
Since August 2005 Paul cut his teeth on the installation side of the business in the Bay Area where he worked for a firm dedicated to just installation services. He remembers those projects in San Francisco having to work nights to get the product off the truck and into the building up how ever many floors to the end destination and then the installation followed. If Paul cannot perform an element of an installation it likely can’t be done. Paul is customer satisfaction focused and his saying is let’s go spread some awesome! It’s also a little funny how so many customers want to help Paul but truth be known just step back and go relax somewhere while Paul works his magic
JOE BRYANT
Installer
Like father like son is Joe following in the competent footsteps of his father Paul. Many hands make for light work, but Joe is more than just a set of additional hands as he is already demonstrating product knowledge and independent work beyond other installers many years his senior.
