ROCKLEIGH, N.J., Feb. 22, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Crestron announced today that experienced innovator and industry expert John Clancy has joined the company as its new Vice President of Residential Programs. John comes with a wealth of experience within the industry, having spent the last 23 years at Audio Command Systems, Inc., as the Executive Vice President and Chief Technology Officer. ACS is a premier residential dealer with multiple locations throughout the country. His programming work, high-level design development, and documentation helped keep ACS at the top of the industry for more than a decade.

"I am excited to start this new adventure with Crestron and lead the product development, sales, and marketing for Crestron's residential business. I look forward to working with the team to further increase their commitment to the luxury residential market," said Clancy.

Clancy was instrumental in driving ACS to become one of the largest residential audio, home theater, lighting control, and home automation companies in the nation.
