Bio
Rob Lingelbaugh, MBA
Brent and I worked together for 15+ years with just under 2 of those years reporting to him directly. We sold together on the same sales team at one time and eventually worked our way to sales leadership roles within the organization. I can say that there is no one I have ever met that was as passionate, committed, versatile, and strategic to the business. I find his knowledge and experience in both life and in business simply help people be better at what they do every day. If you would like to take your business to the next level, Brent is the leader you’ve been looking for!
Matthew O'Connor

He is extremely loyal and always executed what is asked of him. Brent is a versatile leader who can always step in to any situation and lead with impact. His knowledge of all types of sales segments make him incredibly valuable. His management and operational discipline make him really effective. Any company would be lucky to hire Brent for a sales leadership of operational in their organization. Most important Brent is a good person who always does the right thing with the highest integrity.

Care.com, an IAC (NASDAQ: IAC) company, was founded in 2006 on the understanding that quality family care is both a fundamental human need and a key driver of economic growth and empowerment. When children receive quality care in their critical formative years, they are on a path to achievement and success. Women disproportionately shoulder caregiving responsibilities, but when they have supports in place that enable them to work, our economy grows. When seniors receive quality care in their homes, healthcare costs decline with fewer hospital stays. When we have a strong caregiving workforce, all these things are possible. Care.com offers of an array of services that enable families to find, manage and pay for care and provide employment opportunities for caregivers. These include a robust suite of safety tools and resources, easy ways for caregivers to be paid and obtain professional benefits, household tax and payroll services for families, and customized corporate benefits packages covering child care and senior care services.
