Founder and Chairman of the Board David L. Aldridge said, "This change provides the company with the ability to continue on its upward trajectory while simultaneously perfecting its processes. We can apply a laser focus to the company's local client relationships via Bryan and execute our strategic vision through Patrick's strong leadership. Aldridge is well-positioned to continue fulfilling its plan to improve service levels while strengthening its technical depth through significant, continued growth."

Prior to this change, all of the company's operations reported directly to Wiley. Expanding the breadth of Gregory's responsibilities will promote growth and help refine operations within the business.

"Patrick will be freed to focus on leading the company through its continued expansion while evolving its service offerings to meet the needs of clients in this exciting time of rapid technological change," said David Aldridge.

Wiley praises the Aldridge team for its dedication to the company's development.

Gregory will relocate to Aldridge's Houston headquarters from Dallas, TX where he has served as the senior vice president and Dallas general manager for the past two and a half years. During his time in Dallas, Gregory successfully completed two acquisition integrations while expanding the company's capabilities in the Metroplex.

Gregory joined Aldridge when the company was comprised of only 10 employees and has held every sales-related position within the organization since that time.

"Bryan's track record during these past eight years at Aldridge proves he is deeply invested in understanding and caring for our clients' needs. His ability to run local operations is unmatched, making him the logical choice for president," said Wiley.
