President & CEO

Since the age of 16, Sid has worked in almost every aspect of the business – from pumping wells to managing field operations. His current role as President & CEO continues the family legacy of successfully operating Wolverine. While Wolverine’s past success has been found primarily through exploration, Sid has expanded the company through successful acquisitions. He is a member of the Michigan Oil and Gas Association and the Independent Petroleum Association of America.

Sid’s business career began as a commercial banker with Michigan National Bank after graduating from Calvin College. Before his tenure at Wolverine, Sid attended and earned an MBA from the University of Michigan.

Sid is involved with his church and has been on the board of numerous non-profits. Currently he is on the board of directors of Door International, a worldwide evangelistic organization and Fortify Rights, a human rights organization focused on Southeast Asia.
