Eric Karlen

Son of NSE $30 million earner Russ Karlen, Eric learned early on the benefits of creating a large distribution network. Wanting to pave his own way in life, however, he pursued a career as a Stock Broker. When Eric heard about NSE's planned acquisition of Pharmanex, he saw the potential to create a significant income with its differentiated product line and quality control philosophy. He quickly worked his way to the top of the company, becoming Blue Diamond in just over 12 months, and Team Elite within 18 months... at just 25 years old. And the recent addition of the BioPhotonic Scanner has propelled his organization's sales volume significantly. Eric credits his success mainly to the team effort of the many great leaders in his organization.

 Terry Fossum

A Mechanical Engineer and former Captain in the U.S. Air Force, Terry was the Executive Officer for an entire Group of B-52 Aircraft, where he garnered awards such as Fairchild AFB Officer of the Year, Strategic Air Command Humanitarian of the Year, and Distinguished Graduate from Squadron Officers' School. While working full time in the Air Force, he joined NSE, Pharmanex's umbrella corporation, and built up a part-time income that far surpassed his Captain's pay. After resigning his Commission from the Air Force, he went full time in NSE, and expanded his organization across the U.S. and several other countries. Hobbies including camping, hiking, martial arts, and a wide range of philanthropic work, including United Way (Volunteer of the Year), Rotary (Community Servant of the Year), Boy Scouts (Silver Beaver - top award from Boy Scout Council), Chamber of Commerce, and more.


 
Blue Diamond
 Denny Pretz

After receiving his Bachelor's Degree in Finance from University of Missouri in 1972, Denny received his commission as an Officer in the U.S. Marine Corps, where he served for 4 years. After leaving the Corps, he began an extremely successful career in high-level business, owning several companies ranging from Real Estate Syndication, to Life Insurance, to a Lighting Consultant company called Future Brite. As soon as he and his business partner reviewed the NSE business plan, they immediately sold their companies, and worked their new business full time. They quickly built an organization that spanned the entire U.S. and many other countries... far surpassing their previous incomes. Denny retired to enjoy the residual income that comes with success in this industry. Since the launch of the Scanner, Denny has now come out of retirement 'with a vengence', not wanting to miss getting a large piece of the new Pharmanex marketshare for himself, and wanting to help others achieve the success that he has enjoyed.
