ILS Welcomes New Team Member!

April 29, 2010

ILS is proud to announce that we have added a new member to our technical support team.  Gary Lewis is “the new guy” and joined our ILS family on April 16th.  Gary has graciously shared his bio:

My name is Gary Lewis and I’m the newest addition to the team here at Innovative Learning Solutions.

I was born right here in Knoxville, TN, and though I often travel, I’ve never found anywhere else I wanted to call home. My background has primarily been in customer service and sales and I’ll be bringing that experience to the technical support staff team here at ILS.

Most of my free time is spent outdoors at the local parks, up in the Smoky Mountains or playing whatever game happens to have caught my interest.

Please join us in welcoming Gary to the team!
