The People Behind Private Technology Group & AV Gallery

Exceptional projects require exceptional people. At Private Technology Group and AV Gallery, our team brings together decades of experience in technology, design, lighting, logistics, sales, marketing, and the arts.

Each member of our team plays an important role in creating the thoughtful, highly personalized experience our clients, designers, architects, builders, and trade partners have come to expect.

Jeffrey Skalny — Founder & CEO

Jeffrey Skalny is the vision behind Private Technology Group. With more than 25 years of experience in residential technology, system design, and integration, Jeffrey has built PTG around a simple philosophy: When Details Matter.

His focus extends far beyond technology alone. Jeffrey continually explores new products, design disciplines, and emerging technologies to create environments where lighting, entertainment, automation, art, and architecture work together seamlessly.

His commitment to innovation, craftsmanship, and uncompromising attention to detail continues to define the direction of Private Technology Group and AV Gallery.

Yeny Roa — Lead Lighting Designer

As Lead Lighting Designer, Yeny Roa plays a central role in shaping the way Private Technology Group approaches architectural and decorative lighting.

She works closely with clients, interior designers, architects, and the PTG technology team to develop lighting plans that balance aesthetics, functionality, comfort, and control. From fixture selection and placement to layered lighting concepts and integrated control strategies, Yeny helps ensure that lighting is considered as an essential part of the overall design rather than an afterthought.

Her thoughtful approach helps transform spaces through light—highlighting architecture, artwork, materials, and furnishings while creating environments that feel inviting, refined, and uniquely suited to the people who live in them.

Lois Guttenberg — Sales Associate

With years of experience working within the Las Vegas World Market Center and the design community, Lois brings a deep understanding of the relationships, service, and attention to detail required in the luxury residential market.

She works closely with designers, trade professionals, and clients to introduce the many products and services available through Private Technology Group and to help connect each project with the right resources.

Her welcoming approach and extensive industry experience make her an important part of the PTG showroom experience.

Antonio Snow — Sales Associate

Born and raised in Las Vegas, Antonio brings an authentic understanding of the city, its homes, and the unique lifestyle of the clients who live here.

Antonio works directly with homeowners to help them discover thoughtful ways to enhance their environments through technology, entertainment, lighting, and original art.

His ability to connect people with solutions that complement both their homes and their lifestyles makes him an integral part of the Private Technology Group and AV Gallery team.

Mar Bran Ortiz — Social Media Director

Mar brings a distinctive creative perspective to Private Technology Group through her background in marketing, editing, content development, and New York fashion design.

She oversees PTG's social media presence and helps translate the company's diverse collection of technology, design services, products, and original artwork into compelling visual stories.

Her combination of design sensibility and marketing experience helps clients and design professionals better understand what is possible when technology and creativity are approached as part of a complete design vision.

Dave Thomas — Logistics Manager

Dave Thomas oversees the logistics that help keep Private Technology Group projects moving efficiently from planning through delivery.

Working behind the scenes, Dave coordinates products, shipments, receiving, staging, and project-related logistics to help ensure that equipment and materials are where they need to be, when they need to be there.

His organization and attention to detail are an essential part of delivering the level of service expected on sophisticated residential and design projects.
