CEDIA’s Board of Directors have elected the 2022 Executive Committee, as well as unanimously electing David Weinstein, vice president of residential sales at Lutron Electronics, as its new Chairperson.
Serving alongside Weinstein on the 2022 Executive Committee are the following:
Jamie Briesemeister, Vice Chairperson
CEO and co-founder, Integration Controls
Michael Sherman, Secretary
CEO, Henri
Alex Capecelatro, Treasurer
CEO, Josh.ai
Rob Sutherland, Immediate Past Chairperson
Managing director, Inspired Dwellings
Weinstein commented: “I am honoured to have been chosen to lead our board. The opportunity to work creatively and synergistically to support Daryl Friedman and the CEDIA staff has never been greater. With residential spaces more central to people’s lives than ever before, CEDIA is in a great position to foster continued industry growth for our valued members. My sincere gratitude goes to Jamie, Michael, Alex and Rob and the entire board for joining me as we work with our new CEO to take CEDIA to the next level.”
Appointing CEDIA’s Executive Committee, the board aims to create a well-rounded body that represents the diversified and global community of CEDIA professionals. Welcoming the first female vice chairperson, Briesemeister is also the highest-ranking woman in the history of CEDIA’s board. Sherman’s appointment marks the first Executive Committee representative from a French integration company.
Having Sutherland on the Executive Committee ensures a highly experienced board representation from the UK market.
“We are ecstatic to usher in the 2022 Executive Committee who we know will act as a strong force in helping shape CEDIA’s future,” said Daryl Friedman, CEDIA global president and CEO. “The first-hand experiences and passionate ideas this group brings to the table are invaluable, and we can’t thank them enough for dedicating their time to CEDIA.
“We also want to thank Rob Sutherland, Immediate Past Chairperson, for his service on behalf of the entire industry, and for acting as a shining example to all those who will fill the role after him.”
