Ed joins Areya Technologies after 20 years in customer relationships building high-growth, global sales teams at companies including Yext (IPO), ShareFile (acquisition by Citrix), and most recently AppBuddy, a top Salesforce AppExchange ISV (acquisition by Validity)
At ShareFile, Ed grew the sales organization from one rep to over 350 global sellers while growing revenue from $4 million to over $100 million in just five years. His teams also led the successful acquisition and integration of multiple companies for the ShareFile division while it was part of Citrix. At AppBuddy, he grew revenue by over 500% in four years, leading to a highly successful acquisition by Validity in 2019. He also led business development, marketing, customer success, and customer service during that time
Ed sees business at its highest level as a purpose-driven community, where team members can rise above self-centeredness and limitation to solve customers’ problems. Having endured the pain and frustration of failed partner implementations in prior roles, Ed sits on the Board of Advisors and guides the vision of Areya Technologies.
