PPDS has appointed Emily Pirtle as regional sales manager for the TOLA region, covering Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana, and Arkansas.
The company says Pirtle has more than 20 years of experience across AV integration, sales, and classroom teaching, and has supported more than 45 school districts on technology strategy, hardware, and infrastructure.
Her appointment supports PPDS’s growth plans in Southern US markets. In addition to education, PPDS is targeting opportunities in corporate, hospitality, and retail verticals with its portfolio of Philips professional displays.
Bruce Wyrwitzke, director of sales, North America, at PPDS, said: “Emily’s experience, enthusiasm, and proven commitment to best practice business made her the ideal candidate for this important and exciting role.”
Emily Pirtle added: “I feel all roads in my career have led me to this moment. PPDS is part of a globally respected brand, with a legacy of introducing world-first and cutting-edge technologies. What truly stood out to me, though, was the opportunity to work with talented, driven, and genuinely collaborative people.”
Pirtle will focus on supporting integrators, resellers and end customers, as well as driving sales strategy and brand visibility across the region.
