Our Team
John M. Hedges, President and part owner for more than 20 years
I'm a Rochester native – surviving the weather and Catholic schools – all the way through to an Accounting Degree from Notre Dame.
Counted beans in Public Accounting for 7 years, then “graduated” to the Desk Set (formerly known as Johnny’s Junkland!!) since the beginning.

Susan Dwyer, Office Manager
I have been with the Desk Set going on 9 fun filled years. Enjoy all I do here – almost as much as antiquing and trekking through
garage sales. To answer the most asked question of me – YES – that is my voice on the answering machine.

Donna McDonnell, Sales
Associate
I’m the part-timer on the block. I have enjoyed learning something new regularly at the Desk Set for the past 4+ years. I know a
lot about a little and a little about a lot, but if I don’t know, I am always happy to find an answer for you. I am the proud mother of 4 and an avid sports fan…...GO BILLS!!

Ron Jeffers, Account Executive
I have been at the Desk Set for 14 and a half years. I recently moved from production into sales – and enjoy the
challenge. Love working with the customers, creating comfortable work environments and at the end of a successful day you’ll probably find me with barbeque implements in
hand.

Brian Van Harken, Production Manager
I recently became a traitor to my former employer Merkel Donohue by moving over to their parent company the Desk Set back in July of
2008. I have enjoyed working with everyone here and I am glad I made the move to the other side! In March I took the plunge into marriage and it has been great so far! I love
playing volleyball which is evident by the 3 leagues I play in. If I am not working or playing volleyball you can find me hard at work on my new house while drinking a nice cold
Yeungling.
