Visionary Appoints Sandy Sousa As Sales Support Manager
Visionary Solutions, a global innovator in AV-over-IP and IPTV technologies, has named Sidalia "Sandy" Sousa as sales support manager. Sousa joins following more than 28 years at Crestron Electronics, where she most recently served as senior manager of sales administration across the company's AV and shades business.
In her new role, Sousa will back Visionary's sales team, dealers and integration partners with order processing, logistics and day-to-day sales operations, helping ensure partners receive timely products and support as demand grows for Visionary's AV-over-IP and IPTV solutions.
Sousa began at Crestron in 1997 and spent nearly three decades supporting its sales organisation through a period of substantial expansion. Her experience spans audiovisual, videoconferencing and lighting control, and she led sales administration for Crestron's audiovisual and shading product lines. In the early years of Crestron's dealer relationships, she handled logistics, inventory challenges and urgent project requirements for multi-store retail partners, earning a reputation for integrity, creative problem-solving and a readiness to question convention. Prior to Crestron, she spent 13 years as senior sales support at Bell Container Corp.
"As Visionary continues to grow, the experience our partners have working with us matters as much as the technology itself," said Scott Freshman, chief operating officer for Visionary. "Sandy spent nearly three decades at a well-recognized brand, ensuring dealers and integrators had what they needed, when they needed it. She understands how the channel works and how to keep projects moving, and that experience will be a tremendous asset to our partners. We're pleased to welcome her to the team."
"After more than 28 years at Crestron, I took some time to think about what I wanted to do next, and Visionary was the right fit," said Sousa. "I've spent my career helping partners get what they need to keep their projects on track, and I'm excited to bring that experience to a team with so much momentum in AV-over-IP. I'm looking forward to getting to know Visionary's partners and helping them succeed."
Sousa's appointment underscores Visionary's ongoing investment in the people and resources that underpin its partner ecosystem. As its portfolio of AV-over-IP, IPTV and collaboration solutions expands, Visionary remains committed to responsive, hands-on support for integrators, dealers and end users.
