Greetings all Avalon Forum followers and participants! I recently joined Avalon as the Director of Business Development for North America. In short I am responsible for sales, support, and development for North America. I'm extremely excited to be contributing to Avalon and hope I can contribute in a useful way on occasion to this forum as it relates to Avalon.
Some of you may know me from my past history as owner/operator of Great Northern Sound Company (a brick and mortar Avalon dealer for 5 of those years), or through my work for other audio companies like Audio Research, Wadia, California Audio Labs, and Resolution Audio. I'm confident that my experience and passion will be an asset to Avalon and they have been extremely supportive of me and the efforts I am undertaking. I'm a very lucky guy to get to spend time learning from Neil Patel and to listen to the incredible sound we get at the Avalon factory...most recently with the Tesseract speakers. Mind blowing. I'm quite familiar with all the Avalon models current and past and hopefully can be a useful resource here in this forum.
I simply ask that the subject matter be kept to Avalon as that is my focus....not "which parts should I use to modify my pre-amp?" or can you repair my "CD Player"
You guys know what I'm talking about, so please respect this request.
Avalon has made a very conscious decision to put a renewed and strong focus on the domestic market and I feel honored to help lead that effort with the rest of the Avalon team. You will see much more exposure of our products and brands in a variety of places, shows, reviews, new and refocussed dealerships, etc. I will do my best to help provide customer service that is second to none. I am happy to receive emails from Avalon owners or those interested in becoming Avalon owners...you can email directly me through this forum. I do travel quite a bit and of course try to stay caught up while away from the office, but just be a little patient...I absolutely will respond to all emails in the most timely way I can.
Lets keep the discourse positive and interesting!
