About

Hi! This is Aleksandra. I most recently worked in the Founder’s Office at SquareX a browser security company acquired by Zscaler in February 2026. At SquareX, I worked directly with the founder and focused on building the company’s commercial and public presence. I served as a public-facing voice across social platforms, contributing to SquareX becoming the most-followed browser security brand on LinkedIn, and turning that visibility into closed customer opportunities. I hosted 100+ conversations with senior leaders and executives through the Be Fearless podcast and owned all executive events across the APAC region, bringing together decision-makers from global enterprises. I enjoy helping technical innovation reach adoption faster through clear narratives.
