“I’m excited to join Salsify at such a pivotal time in the company’s growth journey. Salsify has established itself as a market leader with a solid foundation, incredible people, and a well-capitalized business. I’m looking forward to contributing to Salsify’s next chapter of growth, building strong relationships with the Salsify team, customers, and investors, while driving financial and operational excellence across the organization.”
