‘Our team combines a unique mix of knowledge and experience that are perfectly suited to lead Airstreams to the next stage of growth and expansion,’ says Dave Schulgen, founder and chairman of the board.
In his new role, Duff will continue to oversee the expansion and daily operations of the company's renewable energy training and education programs.
