“I had the pleasure to work with Brian in both his classic Product Marketing and outbound Campaign Director roles at Kintana/Mercury. He excelled at both by bringing together deep product knowledge, a laser-like focus on business results, a close and easy partnership with the sales organization, and a truly tireless work ethic.”
