Draper® Adds AV Consultant Relations Manager

(Spiceland, Ind.) – Draper has added a second AV Consultant Relations Manager. Joseph Burke will be responsible for the western half of the United States. He joins Steve Cook, who will continue his role in the eastern half of the country.

“Our work with AV consultants has remained an important focus for us,” said Jentry Wittkamper, director of sales. “Joe’s enthusiasm for the AV industry, and his depth of knowledge about projection and direct view display structures, made him a natural choice to help continue developing strategic relationships with the design community.”

Burke first joined Draper as a regional sales manager in the southern U.K. in 2009. He most recently served as U.K. and European manager.

“I really appreciate the opportunity to work with Steve and our AV consultants in the United States,” said Burke. “I’m looking forward to getting out there and helping AV consultants design the best visual display solutions for their environments.”

Burke will be available to assist AV consultants from 8 a.m.–5 p.m. Mountain Standard Time by phone, email, or virtual meetings. He will begin traveling to in person meetings later this year, once travel restrictions are lifted.

He can be contacted at 765-856-1330 or jburke@draperinc.com.
