Newsletter: Employee Spotlight

Even though ZeeVee calls the east coast home, our commitment to serving our friends and colleagues in the west coast knows no bounds. That’s why we hired the best in the west, Nam Le, as our Western U.S. and Western Canada territory sales manager.

In his position, Nam is responsible for business development in 12 western states – Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, Oregon, Utah, Washington and Wyoming – and four western provinces – Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba and Saskatchewan.

“When I first joined ZeeVee, I was immediately struck by the openness and supportive culture between the employees,” said Nam. “In contrast to many of the previous companies where I worked, I feel like my colleagues at ZeeVee genuinely care about my success and are willing to help me with whatever I need.”

Nam has spent more than 15 years in the pro AV industry, and his greatest pride is the business relationships he's built during that time. He subscribes to the approach of  prioritizing people over products, saying that there's nothing better than buying from a friend.

“The pro AV industry has certainly intensified in recent years. I believe that this presents an opportunity for companies in the industry to develop new technologies and solutions that benefit everyone involved. By sharing best practices and learning from each other's experiences, we can improve our products and services and better meet the needs of our customers,” said Nam.

Nam predicts that the use of AI in the pro AV industry will be more prevalent in the coming years. He expects that much of the back-office production, such as logging sales opportunities, creating quotes and tracking project progress, will be automated using AI. However, he expresses that not even advanced technology can replace the value of building personal relationships with customers.

Nam lives in Westminster, California, just 35 miles south of Los Angeles with his wife, Uyen Nguyen, and his three daughters, Layna (12), Emily (10) and Madison (6). When he’s not at work, he’s spending time with his family, cooking or practicing volleyball with Layna. He also enjoys building computers, modifying the technology in his car and hiking.
