About

Throughout my career in telecommunications, I’ve been driven by a commitment to innovation and security in voice communications. At Transaction Network Services, I focus on enhancing customer engagement through enterprise-branded calling solutions and protecting consumers with an AI-powered call protection platform. My team and I are dedicated to delivering secure, efficient, and reliable communication, always pushing for the next generation of solutions with diverse perspectives at the forefront. Previously, as the Founder, President, and CEO of AGNITY Global—which was later acquired by Transaction Network Services—I led the company to become a global leader in application infrastructure for service provider networks and healthcare communications. By combining telecommunications and software development expertise, I spearheaded the delivery of contextual communication solutions, empowering Tier 1 Service Providers and healthcare organizations with innovative, mobile collaboration tools.
