Brian will focus on the direction and evolution of Airmar’s line of marine products, and joins with over 20 years of marine electronics experience, primarily in product development and line management.

“We are excited to have Brian on board and are looking forward to the fresh approach and experience he’ll bring to the table,” says Jennifer Matsis, VP of sales and marketing. “Having worked with us on many projects over the last twenty years, he already understands our business quite well. He is an outstanding addition to the team.”

That excites me about this role.”
