What do you like most about what you do professionally?
Cyber security is a thrilling field. I am grateful I get to build teams of engineers, customer success managers, support analysts, and program managers that solve unique security problems and prove value long-term to our customers. I love the community that exists in cyber security. We’re all facing big problems and we all rally to help one another. I am fortunate that I can lead such an amazing group of people and help maximize their potential each and every day.
