Wrightson, Johnson, Haddon & Williams

Wrightson has worked in the acoustics industry since 1978 and has spent 30 years at WJHW, where he oversees work on sound systems, acoustics, noise control and the environmental noise impact of outdoor events. His sports résumé dates to 1986, when the acoustical consulting firm he was with helped to design Milwaukee’s new Bradley Center. Three decades later, he led WJHW’s work at Fiserv Forum, that arena’s replacement. Chase Center and Globe Life Field are among his other recent clients. Williams’ career in high-definition video displays began in 2004 with an installation at Turner Field. His past year has been busy, as he helped create the video production system for SoFi Stadium’s video board, Allegiant Stadium and Globe Life Field, and was awarded similar work at the under-construction UBS Arena for the New York Islanders and the Henderson Event Center, home of the AHL affiliate of the Vegas Golden Knights. Beaudoin is charged with growing the company’s client and partner base, negotiating fees and managing projects, such as his recent work at Arizona State’s Sun Devil Stadium, Ford Field and FedEx Forum. He is also part of San Diego State’s new football stadium development team. — D.B.
