Could you please tell us a bit about yourself first ?
I was born in South Africa and finished school in the United Kingdom . Since 1996 , I have been living and working in several countries around the world . My focus has always been on IT security . I started my career as a Direct Sales Representative for a large systems integrator ( Schlumberger SNS ) but then quickly moved on to channel sales and management .
Some of my experiences include roles at Juniper Networks , McAfee and F5 ( Middle East channel development ), Computerlinks Distribution ( Director of Marketing , APAC ), BeyondTrust ( Strategic Alliances Director ) and Centrify ( initially EMEA channels , then VP for WW channels ). For the last 18 months , I helped to evolve and define the channel go-to customer strategy for Rapid7 across EMEA , APAC and LATAM .
Why did you choose to join Invicti ?
My decision to join Invicti was probably one of the easiest career choices I have made .
I also saw that Invicti and I have a shared vision of building a truly incredible channel ecosystem .
