Paul Fresques

Having centered his early years around sports and learning valuable lessons about the importance of education, Paul graduated from Weber State University in 1981, receiving Outstanding Merchandising Student of the Year while maintaining a 4.0 GPA. During his time in college and after graduation Paul continued to excel with Undisco Corporation / Sunset Sports Outlets holding management positions in sales and purchasing. With this experience and knowledge he pursued an opportunity in the food industry. With loyalty to his employer he climbed the ladder from Account Executive, Key Account Manager and District Manager over a 6 state region. Having achieved his goals and excelled in his 17 years in the food industry Paul sought new opportunities when he acquired his Nevada Contractors License and started a stucco company, Spray Products Application. He spent the next ten years running and growing this company. With 27+ years achieving his goals in sales and management, Paul has come full circle to his original center and has placed his focus on sports, by teaching and education the youth through his founding and daily operation of the non-profit organization, ”Youth United”.

Linda Clawson

Linda was given an incredible opportunity when starting her career by training in management by the Kay Jewelers Corporation. This start provided her a successful 27 years in sales and sales management in the contract appliance industry, with a majority of those years with General Electric Direct.

She was then offered a fulfilling career change with a move into the health care industry from Caregiver Support Network Home Health and Hospice, where she drew from her past experience in marketing and management. Linda was then sought out by a competitor in the industry where she accepted a position with South Davis Home Health and Hospice.

Having received great fulfillment in her career and through the rearing of her children Linda now finds joy in her spare time by providing her knowledge and service to Youth United.

Joseph R. Koehm

For more than 25 years Joseph has taken ideas and turned them into reality. As an architect and contractor the dreams of many families have come to fruition. The satisfaction this brought to Joseph propelled him through his growth into large commercial projects. However being a family man he was always brought back to helping family realize their dreams. If you were to ask Joseph his greatest accomplishment, you might be surprised, with his successes, to hear him say “being a Father”. So it is no surprise with that type of focus on his family that when Paul invited Joseph into the FSA family, he happily accepted. Joseph brings a wealth of experience and balance to FSA with his organizational skills and understanding of what it takes to overcome objectives.
