Genelec USA, the U.S. distribution arm of the Finland-based active monitor manufacturer, has announced recent appointments and a promotion as well as the remodeling of the company’s headquarters in Natick, MA.

Long-time team member Eric Daubney has been promoted to digital content manager. He joined Genelec in 2015 in a sales support role, focusing first on order processing and then taking on U.S. social media management for the brand.

In addition, David Agoglia has joined Genelec USA as service manager, with previous experience that includes a background in music gear sales, and as a member of the rock band Rev Theory, he toured the U.S., Europe and Canada supporting the band’s recording contract with Interscope Records.

Next, Mary Stewart has come aboard in the position of sales administration coordinator. She holds a degree in Sociology, and recent work experience as a paralegal has enhanced her attention to detail. Andrew Eggleston has also joined the team part-time as a shipping specialist, splitting time between his new role at Genelec and studies at MassBay Community College in nearby Wellesley, majoring in computer science.

Meanwhile, Izzy Akdikmen has been named product support specialist. Her studies and work experience include managing and engineering in music recording studios, and she’s proficient in Pro Tools, Dolby Atmos and Sony RA360 immersive software as well as other software applications relevant to the pro audio industry.

Finally, Ben Morris has joined the team as service associate. He is a recent graduate from the University of Massachusetts Lowell’s Sound Record Technology program, where he focused on acoustics, audio circuitry, analog/digital recording, and studio repair/maintenance. Before Genelec, he worked at a local recording studio as well as a tube amplifier repair shop.
