We're the ones who live and breathe awesome audio everyday. In the office, on the field, on the road, in the gym - and bring it to you! Here's an intro to some members of the team and what music means to them. Tell us what's up on the blog, Social Media or hit us up at FindYourGo@jlabaudio.com. Want to join #TeamJLab?

CEO
20 year electronics veteran. Awesome ear for audio. Passionate about creating, selling, and supporting products that everyone can afford. That’s me. But it’s not just me. That’s JLab. I turned in my suit and tie for shorts and t-shirts (mom not thrilled, FYI) and headed West. I planted the JLab flag in San Diego, went out and hired the BEST people we could find, and turned them loose to wreak havoc on an industry that needed havocking. It’s not about degrees or titles. It’s about passion. Let me know how we’re doing, good or bad: win@jlabaudio.com or win.cramer
Executive Assistant
Music literally gets me form A to Z. I'm either tapping my foot along to tunes while working, or getting cock-eyed glances from passers-by as I belt out songs in my car. It's as important as breathing!
Operations
Music is a huge part of my life. I love rock music (and a little bit of rap, early '90s west coast represent!). My favorites are '80s thrash and '90s grunge. Metallica! I use music to help me escape to another place or motivate me to push harder when working out.
Operations
Music motivates me when I need a boost of energy and it relaxes me when I need an escape. One of the things I really enjoy about music is how it makes me feel. Music is what feelings sound like! I love how memories are tied to some songs, and you’ll forever go back to that place and time when you hear that song.
Operations
I love music! I imagine it being like my ribs, my kidneys, my liver, my heart. Like my blood it is a force already within me when I arrived on the scene. It is definitely a necessity for me.
Product Design
I’m a music fanatic and I love all things technology/innovation. It's only natural that I try to meld these two loves to create the best user experiences in each and every new product.
Products
Music serves as the perfect backdrop for all of my life's adventures. Whether it's time for fitness, the great outdoors, snowboarding, or lounging at home, I can always find something to lift me up.
Sales
Listening to music at work, in the car, poolside, or going to concerts takes me to a place where I can step away from the hustle of everyday life. While my co-workers may not appreciate it, the majority of the time you will find country music playing if I get to the office first.
Sales
I’m inspired by fitness, fun and family. If I’m not in the gym, I’m on the golf course with my wife, out on the town with my buds, or preaching the JLab Audio message to our fantastic partners.
Sales
Music has always been influential in my life. I feel the music I listen to at a given time in my life will always stay with me. Even to this day, an old song will come on and I can reflect back to where I was when I first heard that song. I grew up listening to rock with my dad and in my youth, I grew a love for hip hop and the expression of poetry in song.
Sales
I enjoy listening to podcasts while I am on a trail run, getting in the zone with electronical music when typing emails and diving into excel sheets, learning foreign language on top charts while hitting the gym, or dozing off watching a movie at 35,000ft. JLab has always been my provider for earphones, even before I joined the team. There is nothing better, then sharing an interest for our amazing products that I get to use and enjoy every day with customers all over the world.
Sales
I am a romantic analyst, like an awkward blend of Spock and Don Quixote. I am passionate about music, form, function and doing the right thing. Music has added so much richness to my life and with my JBuds Air I can listen to Scheherazade, Jimmy Jazz, Magic Carpet Ride, Maps, Buona Sera, Ordinary Life, Pata Pata, Hit the Road Jack, Do Wop, Hold On and Heroes… wherever I go!
Marketing
I love spreading the JLab word through marketing, telling product stories and working with passionate, inspired people. As a former college golfer, I'm always ready to compete - and love being a challenger brand and seeing people discover JLab and our blue story every day: in-store, online or reaching out on social media.
Marketing
Being a collegiate athlete, I found music to light a fire under me, to bring me to my happy place, or to simply relax me. Music is like medicine, helping create any type of mood you want! Day in and day out you can find me with my headphones in, listening to anything from country to hardcore rap. No matter what it is, I’m a better person with music.
Marketing
For me, as with so many others, music is nostalgic. There are countless songs that remind me of a moment in time, or transport me back to a certain place. It’s a way to escape and a way to remember. Few things can be enjoyed again and again like a song, as well. The right music can be as powerful the first time and the 100th time hearing it. What better way to be immersed in such experiences than a great set of earbuds?
Marketing
I grew up in a musical family playing all sorts of instruments but went down the marketing route instead of a career in music. I love that I am now able to combine my passions for music and marketing at JLab Audio. I still play guitar daily, and love all sorts of music, as long as it’s the Grateful Dead.
Marketing
Creative inspiration and natural beauty are things I truly believe in. Whether I am on my board in the ocean, hiking in the mountains, running on a path, or swimming competitively in a pool; music has always been a huge influence in my life. Music is not just a sound; it is a way of life.
Design
Music is a source of inspiration and expression. Music wakes me up, gets me going, and is a way to add some awesomeness to the every day.
Design
Music is a huge source of inspiration and release for me, and variety is key! I listen to anything from classic rock, '80s, metal, indie, and electronic. I can honestly say going to concerts is how I relax.
Ecommerce
Music has been both a creative outlet and a creative motivator in my life. When in doubt, listen to music. My tastes have always been diverse, so my playlists can be a bit jarring to others, but when i'm having a creative block, it's usually orchestral music to the rescue. Whether I'm drawing, painting or even crunching numbers, i'm at my best when there is music in the air.
Schools/Support
Music helps me throughout the day. It doesn’t matter if I’m at the beach with my family blasting music on my Crasher or in the office with an Epic Air in my ear, JLab has me covered where ever I might be. From Sinatra to Sublime, Jack Johnson to the Stray Cats. The clear quality puts me front stage at the concerts or reminds me of the good old days.
Support
From the car to the court, the kitchen to the square, I take my music everywhere. It gives me my rhythm, it gives me my beat. Music keeps me quick on my feet. Without it, it would be tough to compete.
Support
For me, music is many things… Music is empowering, uplifting and inspirational. It is emotionally captivating and healing. It provides motivation on lazy days and comfort when I’m feeling down. It’s always the right time for music and there is always the perfect tune to match your current mood.
Support
Music moves me, as it gives my life purpose. For instance, there is just something about enjoying some smooth Sade when driving my 65’ Chevy on a nice day. Overall though, I enjoy all genres of music, but a few of my favorites are R&B, Hip Hop, and Reggae. In the spring and summertime you will find me at festivals and concerts. If you see me at Coachella, EDC, CRSSD, or Rolling Loud, definitely say hello from JLab! Enjoy our products and services on your musical journey because, “One good thing about music, when it hits you, you feel no pain.” - Bob Marley

Accounting
I moved to Minneapolis in the early ‘80s for college right when Prince and the Minneapolis sound was starting to become big. I attended many impromptu concerts of up and coming musicians. The pure genius of Prince playing at a bar 20 feet away from me are some of my best memories. Being able to relive these moments with the best headphones brings back a time in my life that was carefree, funky, life changing and amazing!
Accounting
Coming soon!

Music has always been an important part of my life. As a dancer growing up I have been able to experience classical music, salsa, cumbia, Mexican folklore music. It is all an inspiration. Joining JLab Audio just made sense.
Accounting
Music can mean many things to me. I can hear a song that I listened to growing up and it takes me back to my childhood or maybe a movie that I saw once. One of my favorite musicians is Jimi Hendrix. I listen to a lot of his music when I travel to stay alert. When I really like a song or certain type of music I want to share it with friends and family so they can enjoy it too. Music can also serve as a time stamp on different chapters of your life representing certain phases or experiences you may have had.
Accounting
Like the Chili Peppers said music is the great communicator! Music to me is a change of attitude or mindset, an escape from reality at times. I am constantly looking for a new sound or new artist that can move the senses with a poetic mind bending lyric. Without music life would be boring. Without audio products there would be no sound.
Accounting
Music is an important part of my daily life. I like to get my day started by listening to music rather than watching tv. It puts me in a good mood and ready to handle anything that comes my way. I enjoy listening to a wide variety of music from today’s r&b, hip-hop, classic rock, latin, and a little bit of country to name a few.
