Michael Hooper is now Biamp Systems’ area manager for North Texas.
Hooper joins Biamp from Mizzen Marketing, an independent professional A/V manufacturers’ representative firm serving Texas, Louisiana, Oklahoma and Arkansas. Hooper served Mizzen as regional manager in charge of building and maintaining relationships with key regional clients. Prior to that, Hooper was a technical supervisor for audio, video and production communications for the Dallas Center for the Performing Arts—now known as the AT&T Performing Arts Center—and he was also the director of operations for three Texas-based professional symphony orchestras.
In his previous role as Biamp’s North Texas area manager, Beltran oversaw all sales efforts and installations in the North Texas, Oklahoma, and Arkansas territories. Prior to joining Biamp in 2013, he was an A/V designer for Wrightson, Johnson, Haddon & Williams Inc. in Dallas, where he grew sales for existing and prospective clients and designed A/V systems, sound reinforcement systems, and digital media systems. Beltran also previously served as field operations manager and senior project manager for Covenant Communications Corporation in Houston, managing all design-build technical sales.
“Since joining Biamp, Joshua has been an outstanding contributor to our global sales team, and we’re pleased to have him apply his management expertise for our critical control software product family,” said Chris Chandler, sales development director for the Southern NA region. “Joshua leaves big shoes to fill, but Michael brings a terrific background in A/V sales and product management to our organization, as well as extensive knowledge of the North Texas territory.”
