The Origins of Enhance AV
Enhance AV may be a new name, but not new to AV.
Our established team is well-known throughout the Northwest.
Our Story
Each of our founders has a unique backstory. However, all three of them had an early desire to understand technology.
-
Alan, as early as grade school, was very interested in the design and repair of electronics. This passion rapidly evolved into the emerging world of audiovisual entertainment. He spent the better part of 45 years honing his electo-mechanical enginering skills. Audio and Video are the foundation of his passion.
-
Chris, a licensed low-voltage electrician, also has a passion for Audio and Video. He has combined his low-voltage and construction skills in the commercial world of audio-video.
-
James started working with audiovisuals as a tech for his local church at age of 14. After getting the opportunity to work on larger shows in Las Vegas, he went all in and learned all the intricacies of how to design and implement amazing multimedia shows.
For several years, they worked together on many audiovisual projects in Oregon, Washington, and Idaho. Though they did not initially have plans to go into business together, they quickly realized they made an exceptional team. In 2024 that became a reality. By combining their faith, passions, and friendship, God answered their prayers and Enhance AV was born.
With truly amazing speed, the three of them formed Enhance AV, LLC. Business started to roll in before the ink was even dry on the corporate papers. Thanks to many years of personal connections in Central Oregon, we have stayed busy since day one. We are a new name, but we're not new to audiovisual or the business world. Our whole team looks forward to serving you, whether it is a new installation, a remodel, or system maintenance.
