Yap joins Lectrosonics with a very broad spectrum of education and career experience in AV, including technical engineering, distribution, and sales, and having held executive positions at his own company as well as at a variety of industry manufacturers. Since 2012, Yap has been the owner of AV Designs and Consulting Engineers, a company he founded. He has held product specialist and technical consultant positions in the region at manufacturers including QSC and Coda Audio.

"I'm really excited to add Jimmy to our team," says Karl Winkler, VP sales/service at Lectrosonics. "His breadth of experience in the field, his energy level, his easygoing nature, and his hands-on knowledge of audio are all important assets for the company and our upcoming efforts in the region."

"I have always known Lectrosonics to be the Rolls Royce of wireless, and it is a great honor for me to be working with the company," says Yap. "When I visited Lectrosonics headquarters in New Mexico, not only did it reinforce the phenomenal brand quality that everyone in the industry already recognizes, but I also got to meet the many staff members who have worked at the company ten, 20, and even 30 years. Lectrosonics is a company who cares deeply for its people, its staff and its clients, and I hope to extend this throughout the APAC region."
