Celebrating My 1-Year Anniversary at Google! ππ

π Today marks my 1-year anniversary at Google! π
What keeps me so excited every day at Google Cloud Security? Itβs the opportunity to do something truly meaningful: driving our mission to make the internet a safer and more secure place π
Reflecting on the Past 365 Days
Looking back on my first year at Google, I am incredibly grateful for so many things, and especially:
- The People: Iβm surrounded by brilliant, talented individuals who challenge me to learn and grow daily within Google. Just a few legends to name: Chris Martin, Rishalin Pillay, Mohamed Fawzi, John Stone, Or Brokman, Peter Solagna, and Sanne Maasakkers π (And a special shout-out to my Security Sales heroes Alex Lancee and Sophie van der Werf!)
- The Culture: We have an exceptional leadership team that provides the trust and freedom to think and work like an entrepreneurβand doing it the Google way!
- The Tech: Itβs easy to keep going and stay inspired when youβre working with cutting-edge solutions like Google SecOps, CodeMender, Wiz, and Google Threat Intelligence (the largest threat intel platform in the worldβ¦).
A Year of Impact and Exploration
From helping customers and partners and driving thought leadership by speaking about Cloud Security at countless events, to community building with our amazing Google Cloud User Group, it has been an amazing ride π’
To top it off, Iβve had the pleasure of visiting customers and working remotely from 16+ Google Cloud offices around the world! π
πΈ Can you guess which Google office locations are in these photos? Here is a cheat sheet of places Iβve been this past year: Amsterdam, Malaga, Boston, New York, Dublin, Paris, Boulder, San Francisco, Brussels, Stockholm, London, Mountain View, and Sunnyvale.
A massive thank you to Patrice Puichaud Duval, David Grout, and Shira Kimchi for trusting and hiring me a year ago.
Hereβs to the next year and everything yet to come! π₯
