**September 25, 2024, Rochester, NY -**  Apollo Optical Systems is delighted to share that Gregory V. French has committed to joining Christopher Meetze to double their dedicated sales team coverage.

French is a graduate of the Rochester Institute of Technology. Prior to joining Apollo, he was an integral part of Optimax’s growth, engaged in increasingly customer-facing roles from manufacturing engineering to sales and key account management.  French was a key operator at several local CNC machining facilities, including Impact Machining, P&R Industries, and Atlantis Tool.

“We are excited to welcome Greg French as a Senior Business Development Manager. He will fundamentally improve our growth this year by adding his optics knowledge and manufacturing experience. Greg’s intricate understanding of optic components, sub-assemblies, robotics, and tooling will help our customers get to solutions faster,” stated Don Ehinger, CEO. “ With both Chris and Greg together, we will be able to increase and enhance our ability to serve the automotive, tactical, and life science markets.”

Greg French will be joining Christopher Meetze, Senior Sales Engineer. Meetze has been with Apollo since the early spring of 2024, bringing his wealth of optics sales knowledge from past positions at New Scale Technologies, Navitar, and Lasermax over the course of his career. He is a graduate of SUNY Geneseo.

You may reach either Chris or Greg at [info@apollooptical.com](mailto:info@apollooptical.com) for more information on your next injected polymer project or diamond-turning program.
