Everon, a security integrator and provider of commercial security, video, fire and life safety solutions, ranked No. 3 on the 2025 SDM 100, announced a strategic expansion of its regional structure, adding a new region and appointing seasoned senior leaders to drive operational excellence and elevate the overall customer experience.

The growth to four dedicated regions (Central / Gulf, East, North / West, and Pacific) will allow for more focused leadership and collaboration across teams, with the intention of enhancing service and installation delivery and strengthening the overall value of Everon’s partnership with customers as a provider and integrator.

“With this enhanced regional structure, we’re empowering our leaders and teams to be closer to our customers, make decisions faster and deliver the high-quality service Everon is known for,” said Mike McWilliams, president and chief operating officer, Everon. “We’re also proud to welcome proven leaders to advance our mission for service excellence at the highest level. Each of these leaders brings decades of experience and a track record of success that will help us to strengthen partnerships both in and outside of our organization, drive accountability across our entire customer base and accelerate growth.”

The following industry veterans have been appointed as regional leaders to drive critical success nationwide:

Kwame Williams, Sr. Vice President, Central / Gulf Region. Williams has nearly 25 years of experience in the industry, consistently delivering exceptional results as a leader for multiple providers, including Red Hawk Fire & Security, ADT Commercial and Everon. He most recently served as senior vice president for Everon’s Central region prior to the expansion to include the Gulf region.

Tondria Lopeztello, Sr. Vice President, Pacific Region. Lopeztello brings 32 years of expertise across sales, operations and national accounts to the role. For the past seven years, she has led the Los Angeles district as vice president/general manager, consistently earning top honors for service quality and delivery in the area.

Jim Hampton, Sr. Vice President, East Region. Hampton brings more than 27 years of industry expertise and a distinguished record of leadership to the role. He most recently served as vice president/general manager of Everon’s Alabama, Georgia and Carolinas offices, repeatedly earning top service rankings in the area. Hampton is also a U.S. Air Force veteran with 30 years of service.

Brian Willis, Sr. Vice President, North / West Region. Willis has over 25 years of experience in sales and operations leadership, with a career that includes impactful positions with Red Hawk Fire & Security, ADT Commercial and Everon. He has successfully built high-performing teams for Everon, most recently serving as vice president/general manager for the Northern California area.

“This move reinforces Everon’s unwavering commitment to being the most trusted partner in security and life safety solutions,” McWilliams said. “By investing in customer-facing teams, processes, and resources we are poised to deliver faster, more intuitive and more personalized service, helping customers protect what matters most while setting the standard for excellence in the industry.”
