Taylor is excited to lead the tactical efforts of the group.

“With Remote Video Monitoring experiencing exponential growth, the timing is right to unify sales development. I’m excited to be joining this forward-thinking group of innovators and help lead the pathway to even greater success,” Taylor said.
