Harris’ appointment to lead the company’s technical services team comes at a time when sales of the ELAN Entertainment and Control system are growing rapidly in all regions. “In addition to her management responsibilities in the Petaluma, CA and Peabody, MA offices, Charlotte is taking an incredibly hands-on approach to support,” continued Lautner. “She’s already completed the same ELAN hands-on certification training we require of our dealers, and she is actively building up the ELAN tech support team to anticipate the fast growth we are experiencing.”

With 20 years of experience in high tech, including 15 years leading technical support teams, Harris brings a strong customer-centric approach to Core Brands. Prior to joining the company, she was at Enphase Energy, a provider of solar micro-inverter solutions, where she led a team of customer support engineers and built the company’s customer advocacy discipline. Before Enphase, she led the technical support, customer service, and technical editing teams at Business Objects, a business intelligence software and services provider.

“I’m excited to be leading the technical support team at Core Brands,” Harris said. “The team is fully focused on providing exceptional support and solutions to our many customers.”
