What I Like Best About My Job: Consumer Electronics is not just my job, it’s my hobby. I get to see new technology and I’m always interested in how this solves challenges for both installers and consumers. Overall, I like being in the industry that fuels my hobby.
What Makes You Believe the CE Industry Will Thrive in the Next 5 Years: With the rise of smart home technology, I believe the industry will only get better and better. Manufacturers are innovating based on our changing behaviors and habits to create solutions that make life easier for consumers. There are so many great products available now for every budget that there really can be some level of “Smart Home” in every household. If we can solve the talent shortage and educate consumers on why they don’t always want the cheapest electronics they find online, we’ll be well suited to thrive in the next five years.
