Minneapolis - Steve Decker joined Milestone AV Technologies as president of its consumer products group, a newly created position. 

The addition of Decker is part of Milestone's recent realignment into separate commercial and consumer customer-oriented global product groups, the company said. Milestone brands include Sanus, Chief and Da-Lite.

Steve Durkee was previously president of Chief and Sanus products for Milestone, and he becomes president of commercial products, overseeing the Chief and Da-Lite brands.

Decker's responsibilities will include Milestone's consumer-oriented sales, marketing, product development and product-management efforts in the United States, as well as oversight of consumer product sales worldwide.

He was most recently with Kodak, where he ran a number of their consumer and commercial business groups, Milestone said. He has also worked with Thomson Consumer Electronics and Rockwell International.
