They worked together and, over time, established the mission and core values for the company which maintained exceptional customer service over 30 years of growth. Today, Beau and Deb live on their ranch in Montana, have four children and five (so far) grandchildren, but Beau remains very involved in the leadership and vision of Sonitrol Pacific. He lives the philosophy of leading by “getting out of your office and walking around the organization” and values keeping in touch with the clients and employees of Sound Security. Beau flies into the Puget Sound, Portland and Boise several times a month. He exercises his entrepreneurial muscle and satisfies his other passions of flying and ranching through his Montana ventures, Ruby Valley Aviation and Bradley Livestock.
