What I'm looking for

I'm seeking a VP- or Director-level role in physical security, AI surveillance, or central station monitoring, preferably remote or hybrid-accessible to Long Island, NY, where I can lead channel growth, recurring revenue, and interactive monitoring innovation.

I've created, launched, and scaled proactive video surveillance and interactive monitoring services across national dealer and integrator networks.

I bridge SaaS and hardware engineering with scalable channel monetization, leading unified Sales, Operations, and Marketing initiatives that win new logos and support high Net Revenue Retention. I design programs that help traditional systems integrators transition from legacy hardware models to VSaaS and interactive video verification.

I'm targeting VP- or Director-level leadership roles in physical security, AI surveillance, or central station monitoring.
