Getting To Know
The AMX Sales Team

Brian Clements, Eric Rosenberg and Shawn Brechbill recently joined the AMX team as sales representatives.

They're excited about joining AMX and look forward to expanding our business and supporting our dealers. Here's an opportunity to get to know a little more about each of them.

 

Brian Clements
AMX Midwest

Career Background
I’ve had a continuous A/V career spanning almost 34 years. During the course of that time, I have worked as a stage hand, technician, project engineer, operations manager, business partner, programmer, and manufacturer’s representative. 

What brought you to AMX?
Working for AMX is a welcome continuation of a long time partnership in the dealer and sales channel.  As a veteran systems engineer and programmer, AMX products were always my number one choice when providing reliable and innovative control solutions.  Working directly with the AMX team was a tremendous opportunity and an easy decision.   

Territory
13 Midwest States – mostly east of the Mississippi.

Personal Interests
I have been happily married for nearly 29 years to my wife Patti and helped successfully raise our three children.  We both love the outdoors; especially nature, hiking, and camping.  I am always available for a round of golf no matter what the weather.

What brought you to AMX?

Shawn Brechbill
AMX West


Territory
Regional Sales Manager for Southern California

What brought you to AMX?
Mainly the product line, especially with the recent acquisitions of AutoPatch, Matrix Audio and Endeleo.  That really gave me the feeling that AMX had a firm plan in place to embrace the future.  Also, while meeting with AMX, I realized that the company culture was drastically different (in a positive way) from what I had experienced with my previous employer.

Personal Interests
25 years of Surfing in Southern California, Basketball, Slide Guitar

Career Background
I have a Bachelor's of Science in Electronic Engineering & Technology from Long Beach State University.  I worked at TRW Corporation as a Systems Engineer where I was responsible for design, test, integration and analysis for the electronic systems for high energy laser programs. 

Later I became a Sales & Applications Engineer at Physik Instrumente where I was responsible for sales and technical support for all Physik Instrumente products in the western territory. 

Prior to coming to AMX, I was a Sales Engineer at Extron Electronics.  I managed consultant accounts throughout the Midwest and Southeast and was also involved with sales, engineering support and business development for Extron’s entire audio visual product line.
