Wenck, a former radio personality and stand-up comedian, said he was leaving Nuvo to become content marketing manager at the Custom Electronic Design & Installation Association, or CEDIA, beginning June 20.
That's a "super-fancy way of saying 'writer guy for the home tech industry,'" Wenck wrote. "Yep, I get to write about gear every day."
In the late 1980s and early 1990s, Wenck opened for comedians including Drew Carey, Ray Romano and Dennis Miller, but eventually he got into radio.
Wenck was host of WIBC's afternoon slot from 2010 to 2013 after building a local fan base as part of the “Wank & O’Brien” show on Emmis country station WLHK-FM 97.1 for several years.
In March 2013, he walked away from the microphone to work in sales for Emmis, but took the job at Nuvo six months later, replacing Jim Poyser, who had been in the position for 13 years.
At CEDIA, Wenck is "going to be a very private person," he wrote. "I won't be a supervisor, just a writer and an editor."
The association represents 3,700 member companies worldwide and more than 30,000 industry professionals that manufacture, design, and integrate home-technology goods and services.
