Embracing a New Chapter: My Journey to Sectigo as Chief Financial Officer
A Blog Post from Sectigo
Blog Post Sep 07, 2023I'm thrilled to share the exciting news that I recently joined the Sectigo family as Chief Financial Officer, and I couldn't be more enthusiastic about this new chapter in my career.
Firstly, I want to express my gratitude to Kevin Weiss, the CEO of Sectigo, for his warm welcome. He mentioned that he's looking forward to sharing in my success once more, and that's something I'm genuinely excited about. But before we dive into the present, let me provide a little context.
Over my more than three-decade career, I've had the privilege of working in various leadership roles in the software technology, financial, and professional services industries. My journey has taken me through many challenges and opportunities, and I've learned valuable lessons at every step.
My most recent role was as the CFO of Spireon, Inc., a vehicle intelligence company. During my nearly decade-long tenure there, I had the privilege of contributing to the company's success and driving increased enterprise value. It was a remarkable journey that equipped me with the experience needed to take on new challenges.
So, after all this time, why Sectigo, you might ask?
Well, Sectigo presents an incredibly exciting opportunity in the Certificate Lifecycle Management space. The company is poised for tremendous growth, and I'm thrilled to be part of this journey. I believe that my experience in guiding companies through transitions associated with mergers, acquisitions, and accelerated growth will be invaluable in supporting Sectigo's strategic goals.
Before Spireon, I spent over eight years at Deloitte, one of the world's leading international accounting firms. This experience sharpened my financial acumen and provided a solid foundation in accounting principles.
I hold a Bachelor of Science in Accounting and Finance from California State University and am a Certified Public Accountant (inactive), and I'm excited to put this knowledge to use in my new role at Sectigo.
My appointment as CFO at Sectigo is effective immediately, and I'm eager to collaborate with the executive team, our investors, and the entire Sectigo family to contribute to the company's continued success.
I'd like to express my gratitude for this incredible opportunity, and I can't wait to see what the future holds for Sectigo. Together, we're going to achieve great things, and I'm excited to be a part of this journey. Thank you all for your support, and here's to an exciting future!
