SAN FRANCISCO -- June 21, 2011 -- Wohler Technologies today announced that Jhonny Maroun has joined the company as regional sales manager for the Asia-Pacific region. In his new role, Maroun will be responsible for building the Wohler brand in the region by strengthening long-term relationships with customers and channel partners. In his new role, he will work alongside the Wohler Asia team to enhance the company's presence and expand opportunities for their full range of video, audio, captioning, and ancillary data management solutions.
"As a qualified engineer, Jhonny brings solid experience and a rich skill set to his new role at Wohler, and we are excited to have him on our team," said Kim Templeman-Holmes, EVP of worldwide sales at Wohler. "Throughout his professional career, Jhonny has demonstrated strong interest in the technical needs of the customer, ensuring that each client receives the best possible result. His deep knowledge of broadcast workflows and the market landscape will serve us well as we continue to develop and provide innovative solutions for our customers' signal management and confidence monitoring needs."
