Richard Araujo

Service Operations Manager

As the Service Operations Manager, Richard oversees the daily operations of the Service team and takes great pride in teaching, coaching, and mentoring his staff. Fresh out of college, he began his career at Anchor Audio in the PC department. In later years, he advanced to the Technical Support department and continued on to become a National Sales Manager, where he built a deep knowledge base that he now shares with his team. Richard graduated with an A.S. degree in Computer Science & Electronics and likes to say he specializes in customer satisfaction and problem-solving. For him, it’s not about the problems you encounter, but how you respond and solve them that makes the difference.

In his spare time, he enjoys working out at the gym and watching sports; Basketball (Lakers), Hockey (Penguins), or Football (49ers). When sports season is over you can catch him enjoying time with friends or watching crime documentaries. His favorite genre is classic rock, with Lead Zeppelin being listened to regularly on his home turntable. Honorable mention goes to Madonna, which you’ll most likely catch him listening to at the gym.

Richard's favorite Anchor system is the Bigfoot because of its vast applications and exceptional sound output. The Bigfoot can be used in a gymnasium for prep rallies, on the sidelines to enjoy music, or inside for smaller conferences. It’s always best to have more sound than not enough!
