Welcome aboard! On April 1st, Tim Christoph Baas joined the engineering team of MusicMaster’s international distributor ON AIR.

For the last 25 years Tim’s professional radio journey took him from host to music planner to consultant to program director. He hosted and developed different formats in several markets in Germany. Besides his passion for radio, Tim is also passionate for technical development. His first contact to the “wide world of computers” was a ZX81 from Spectrum.

“By adding Tim as Product/Project Engineer to our team, we’re again adding broad experiences from the radio industry. Therefore, we are thankful for Tim’s decision to change sides and to join the MusicMaster family” says Max Müller, ON AIR’s General Manager.

Kevin Hopkins, CTO, adds: “Tim has the capability to wear different virtual ‘glasses’ through which he looks at products and projects. Like all of us, he considers all aspects from engineering to programming. That’s actually why we understand our customers’ business and the future demands of the industry.”

In his spare time Tim and his family love to visit Disneyworld and other amusement parks in the US. On weekends, you can find Tim watching his son playing football, having a BBQ in the garden or getting things done around the house.

MusicMaster Scheduling, Inc. has expanded its Dallas headquarters with the addition of Mary Jo Nsuk as Corporate Accountant. Mary Jo, who also holds an MBA and B.S. in Business Administration, will join the team led by MusicMaster CFO/Controller Ryan Young.

According to Young: “Mary Jo is one of the most well rounded team players I have ever had the pleasure of working with. Her positive attitude is what got my attention, but her dedication, hard work, efficiencies, and strong moral character are what make her stand out above the rest.”

In addition to her outstanding work ethic, Mary Jo brings a diverse accounting background to the MusicMaster team. A Dallas resident, she enjoys spending time with family and is a devoted grandmother to four grandchildren.

MusicMaster Founder and President Joe Knapp shares: “MusicMaster is great because it has a great team behind it.  With the addition of Mary Jo, we’ve made it even greater.”
