A Word About My Job...
What is a "Brand Ambassador" / sales representative?
- It is my goal to bring dedicated and passionate representation to manufacturers, and resellers.
- A large part of my job is to educate and inform consumers and store employees on the various NEW products and technologies on the horizon. This is where attending various trade shows is crucial in my opinion.
- I do not sell directly to end users but I am available to assist potential buyers to guide them toward appropriate and dependable retailers.
- My clients have grown to know me as someone who tries his best to assist them in their efforts.
- Honesty and integrity are & always will be my best policies!
- In my "past lives"; I was an home automation expert, a multi-room audio designer and a Home Theatre designer; I worked & managed retail stores in Montreal and Toronto, and even owned and operated my own custom design company for a while.
What is an Audiophile?
Here is MY definition of an audiophile: It is simply someone that can tell objectively what the difference is between a good and a great sounding audio system. That being said, I also believe that the way we perceive audio is subjective and that what one person likes may not be what another agrees with!
(In other words; Everyone's Ears Are Different! Even if it's only ONE GOOD EAR!)
NEWS
Industry News:
What's coming up?
- Dealer Events: Some of the stores I do business with have special sales which I would like to encourage people to attend. I will post these events on the "Upcoming Events" section.
- Trade Shows; all year long, the Audio community holds various trade shows around the world. I do my best to attend as many of these shows in Canada and in the U.S. as possible because I find that it is important for me to keep in touch with what is new and trending in the Industry...

What's NEW?
The industry, like so many others, is in perpetual movement and new products and technologies are always on the horizon. I still remember when the revolutionary Sony Walkman came out, followed by VHS & Betamax VCR's, CD players, Laser Disc players...and so on...
