With 19 years of industry experience, he works on product development, production improvements, graphic printing, and technical support for lighting and display systems, while continually finding ways to improve how our desks and sets are built. His favorite project was the custom studio for Quantum Group, where he helped bring together advanced features including LCD video walls, a custom direct-view LED display integrated into the desk, and many other custom elements. Leading the on-site installation and seeing the finished studio come together made the project especially rewarding. A Charlotte, North Carolina native, Myles earned a trade certificate from CPCC and brings a hands-on approach and technical expertise to every project.

WHO ELSE?

This is all. Everything is done in-house by this team. Sometimes we hire local people for installations, based on budgets and where it is… but that’s it.

CAPTAIN

Sales Outreach Manager

Captain’s zeal in our Salesperson Outreach Program is unparalleled. He greets unannounced salespeople with gruff barks, a mildly uncomfortable stare, and plenty of unwanted attention. This starts as soon as they approach the front porch.

However, when appointments are scheduled, there is no need for Captain’s welcome wagon. Instead, salespeople can meet directly with our designers, fabricators, and purchasers. If you are a client touring the shop, even better! Captain will lead the way. He even accepts tasty treats as a tip for his tailor-made tour services.

RALPHIE

Security Management

If you said, “That cross between a muppet and a toilet brush looks too big to be a lap dog,” you would be correct.  However, as the facility manager in charge of alarm oversight and troubleshooting, you’ll find he prefers a pre-emptive and very large-sound approach. As a company, we have accepted that this will most likely never change.
