Summary
With over 30 years of experience in technology, I am passionate about delivering game-changing innovations that protect and enhance the online experience for enterprises and users. As a Regional Sales Director at Akamai Technologies, I lead the sales for Akamai API Security, a powerful solution that helps organizations secure their APIs from abuse and fraud. Previously, I was the Vice President of Global Sales at Neosec, a SaaS platform that reinvented application security by using XDR techniques to prevent API abuse and fraud. I helped Neosec achieve 15X growth in revenue and customer base, and advised them on their go-to-market strategy. I also served as a Strategic Advisor at Deduce, a leading provider of identity verification and fraud prevention solutions. I have extensive experience in infosec and fraud prevention, working with large enterprises such as Walmart, Microsoft, Intuit, Visa, and Netflix, and helping them achieve their security and business goals. I have also invested in, founded, or advised multiple start-ups, including Baidu, Mint.com, Impulse Buy Network, and Blueboard. I am honored to be recognized as one of the Top 100 Global Sales Leaders by The Modern Sale, and I attribute my success to my strong technical competence, proven leadership, talent recruitment, and team development skills. I am always eager to learn new technologies, trends, and best practices in the industry, and to share my insights and expertise with my team, partners, and clients. My mission is to enable and empower organizations to leverage the power of APIs and the web, while ensuring their security and performance.
