The most important part of technology is the people who make it work. The
Contract Video Specialists, Inc. staff is a group of dedicated,
professional people...many of whom have over a decade of service with the
company. We look forward to collaborating with you to help you
achieve your project goals.
John
Fleetwood, President
Beginning in high school, John repaired neighbor's TV sets in his
parent's basement. He's been involved in the field since before "TV"
became "video". John has always been interested in magnetic
recording, and worked in that field in the federal government starting in
1967. He became involved in video in 1972 as the manager of an industrial
studio. There, he worked on both sides of the camera (but much prefers
technical work these days). He is Navy trained in electronics,
attended the RTVF program at the University of Maryland, where he later was
the chief engineer of the department, worked for several years at a local
system integration firm, and then founded Contract Video Specialists, Inc.
in 1985. He's been at it for over 40 years, but who's counting?
John is a member of the Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers,
the Society of Cable Television Engineers, the Society of Broadcast
Engineers, and a Certified AMX ACE Installer.
Jonathan
Einarsen, Engineer
Jonathan also developed his interest in video in high school. He
joined CVS in 1987 after completing his work at Capital College in the
field of telecommunications engineering. Over the years, Jonathan has
pursued several areas of specialty within the company. He has staffed the
repair shop as a bench technician, has served as a team member on large
system installations, and presently designs broadcast, public access, and
performance venue systems. In addition to his accomplishments at Contract
Video Specialists, Inc., Jonathan has also served as staff engineer for NBC
News Source in Washington D.C.
Harvey
Everett, Engineer
Harvey has been lending his unique talent to systems integration in
Washington for the past 30 years. It would be hard to imagine a government
agency or private corporation where Harvey has NOT installed a video
facility at some time in the past! His work can be seen at ball
parks, football stadiums, aquariums, in remote trucks, training facilities,
government agencies, broadcast facilities...you name it and Harvey has
built it. His craftsmanship is second to none. Harvey is a Certified AMX
ACE Designer.
Jeff
Schneider, Engineer
Jeff has served the Washington DC technical community with over 25 years
of audio engineering, video engineering, and technology systems design
experience. He has a broad depth of knowledge in commercial audio and
video design and integration. He is well versed in AMX systems, and in live
performance technology. Jeff enjoys
volunteering his time teaching technical theater to local high school
students.
Quentin
Silver, Engineer
Quentin has a wide variety of broadcast, corporate, and institutional
video experience. He has managed all
aspects of operations at a large local corporate facility, served in
various capacities both in engineering and production at the commercial
network level, and has directed programs for a local television station. He is concentrating on engineering at
this phase of his career, and his wide variety of related experience
benefits all our customers.
Alex
Jenkins
Alex is a recent graduate from a local technical school. He is developing
his installation and integration skills by working with other installers,
and is building a portfolio of broadcast and public performance projects he
has participated in.
John Cournoyer,
Controller
John contributes his wealth of business experience, having managed
financial and business operations for medical, service, and manufacturing
companies for over 30 years. He is in charge of all financial matters at
Contract Video. John is an avid golfer and enjoys reading a wide
range of fiction and non-fiction.
Marie
Mohns, Customer Service and Secretarial
Marie is an experienced customer service representative, having faced
the public primarily in the automotive service industry. We’re glad
she made the move to video! In addition to Customer Service duties,
she also assists the rest of the staff in keeping the maintenance shop side
of CVS organized. Marie is a sports enthusiast and a pitcher for a local
softball team…but we promise she won’t throw you any curve balls.
