Greater Los Angeles Area

I spearheaded the transition of our business from distribution to direct dealer-based sales. We successfully made significant progress in a commodity market, which also necessitated adjustments in our supply chain following the impact of new tariffs on our sales plan. This exploration of a new solution category, despite its challenges, provided valuable.

Western United States & Canada

During my third run at Silicon Valley with Atlona Technologies, I focused on regional sales management for the Western US and Canada. I expanded the business through new dealer acquisitions and strengthening the existing dealer base by partnering with territory rep firms. Additionally, I collaborated with distributors, buying groups, tech support, product.

Van Nuys, CA

I gained insights into the distributor perspective of the Residential & Commercial AV channel by working within the largest branch in the country, under the management of Ingram Micro, the world's largest distributor of computer and technology products. Los Angeles remains an amazing city, and I still love it.

United States

I returned to my roots to work directly with consumers, architects, and builders in Aspen, the best city on the planet, and now the valley I thankfully call home. At Paragon, we achieved some of the coolest implementations I have ever been a part of. Creativity without typical budget concerns was incredibly fun and inspiring.

Made another run at Silicon Valley greatness prior to a VUDU's decision to abandon the hardware platform for embedded software. I was able to work with rep firms for the first time and then Best Buy as we tried to sell through our hardware devices before acquisition by Wal-Mart.

Arizona & Nevada

After successful sales understanding with Showcase/Sound Advice/Tweeter for years, I was able to work for my first control system love and sales focus, Crestron, and learn to sell a complete vertically integrated solution working with dealers from their perspective while learning regional sales management. I still bleed a little Crestron blue.

Mountain State Territory

Left consumer direct sales to learn regional sales management with an experience based content delivery system which I still love and believe rounds off the distributed video experience within the home. Learned a lot from a high power Silicon Valley executive team which I am thankful for to this day.

Scottsdale, AZ

Graduated from Purdue and moved to Arizona during the building boom to sell more distributed audio, video and control systems than anyone in the country at the time. Amazingly fun company, time and era in the CEDIA industry which I wouldn't trade for anything.

Lafayette, Indiana Area

Focused on car audio, but very quickly learned that I needed to have a solid understanding of home AV to make this a career. Great organization which was formerly Good Vibes where I learned enough to get me to Arizona and my next step for growth.

Indianapolis, Indiana Area

Intended to be a summer job, but they did such a great job of training me how to sell mobile electronics that this position became my future without me even really knowing that it was the first step of a very long & amazing professional journey.
