As a cancer survivor, I understand that life is precious and so these days I enjoy spending my quality time developing meaningful relationships with people that inspire me, whether that be family, friends, work colleagues, or my customers. With 20 years of experience in International and Enterprise Sales and Marketing within the IT Industry, I am currently focused on helping Victorian businesses deal with the IT security and networking challenges that come with managing hybrid work with a distributed workforce and distributed network. Netskope's market leading SASE cloud security platform has data and threat protection at its core to deal with what is now the new normal.Previously, I played a key role in Whitech's emergence as an award-winning Australian IT company that developed exceptional technology and took advantage of disruption within the photographic industry. Whitech won the prestigious National 2005 Telstra and Australian Governments Business of the Year award. Over a dozen other awards were won in both business and technology. I remained a shareholder in the company until it was sold to Fujifilm Australia in June 2011.My understanding of both the start-up and corporate environments and the ability to identify opportunities with a strategic focus helps the companies I work with succeed in disruptive market places. I can also relate to the many challenges my customers face in the day-to-day running of their businesses.Specialties: MBA in Marketing / International business experience / strategic partnerships and alliances / merger and acquisition undertaking / proven team building and leadership/business modelling and planning / solid negotiation and channel management skills/sales forecasting and budgeting / product line development/experience is creating successful Start-ups / Cybersecurity / Cloud Security / SASE / Data Protection.If you would like to learn more about how 3Columns can help your business remain secure, please contact me via InMail.
