I am pleased to lead our company's Safety and Security product direction as we embark on our next growth strategy. By offering products that align with our corporate strategy, we will enable our sales team to reach new integrators and end customers. I look forward to strengthening our relationships with development, marketing, supply chain, our teams overseas, as well as our customers.

I am excited to have been promoted to Senior Channel Sales Manager. In addition to my existing responsibilities, I am now leading our training group.

As Channel Sales Manager with Panasonic, I regularly call upon my distribution experience with each decision I make. When developing and executing channel programs, I am determined to consider the effects not only the health of Panasonic's business but the health of our distribution partners, integration and dealers partners, and our end user partners.Sales planning and forecasting are both critical to our business. How we align resources and where we make investments are directly correlated to our annual plan and actual monthly sales performance. I am focused on sell through and view our distribution partners' inventory as an extension of Panasonic’s. Managing relationships with our distribution partners is the key to our success. By regularly visiting, training, and coaching our distributors, we remain in lockstep to meet and exceed our sales goals.

As Business Development Manager, I gained a considerable amount of experience and an appreciation for managing a team. By providing direction on WYNIT's marketing, lead generation, technical services, sales promotions, forecasting, and budgeting, I never stopped learning and enjoy that most about my position. Making market visits to meet with our suppliers and customers was also a highlight of my position.WYNITs greatest strengths were its relationships with customers and suppliers. My goal was to continually improve the viability of our business through integrity and honesty. Interaction with our customers involves getting to know their business and what their needs are. It was my responsibility to make sure they are familiar with emerging technologies so that they can remain competitive in the channel and provide a solution that their end user is pleased with. On behalf of WYNITs suppliers, with their strategy and goals in mind, I developed and executed WYNIT's key initiatives so we mutually achieve our goals. The technology in the physical security and pro audio visual markets is changing rapidly, and through my relationships, we were able to stay the forefront. As an influencer in the direction of our business unit, I valued the opion of my teammates and looked forward to prudently investing in resources that will grow our business.

As a buyer for surveillance and audio visual categories within Wynit, I was responsible for procurement, inventory management and supplier relationship management. In addition I had P&L responsibilty and an excellent understanding of how my actions affect the stability of the company. My educational background and interests have afforded me an understanding of IP and A/V products and how to create a system solution that appeals to integrators and their end users.
