Prior to Source, he helped two multi-million dollar companies grow in security alarm, VMS, video surveillance, access control and M2M software platforms. Christian has a sales and technical background that will serve as a huge asset to Vicon.

James Freeman | RSM for ME, NH, VT, MA, CT, RI, and Metro NYC: James is a seasoned sales professional, with 15 years experience handling solutions sales at telecommunications companies like AT&T, Research in Motion and Sony.
