Bio
Derek Baker
I had the pleasure of managing Randy at Cobalt. I can say with certainty that jumping in and navigating a rapidly growing business in the cybersecurity space can be a difficult challenge, but Randy's work ethic and ability to provide value showed through very quickly in our time together! Randy was always willing to dive in on a project that wasn't necessarily in his day to day responsibilities and did so with a positive mindset that was easy to feed off across the team. Randy's experience in CS was apparent from the beginning and his customer first approach resonated with our customer base. I would definitely recommend Randy for your next CSM role and can't wait to watch him succeed along the way.

It took me over a year to recruit Randy to my channel team. It was well worth the wait! Randy is a true channel professional in every sense, with a diverse channel management background and a calm, creative approach to driving results. Randy exemplifies servant leadership with partners and his colleagues through his empathy, collaboration, and character. I'm honored to have Randy as one of my channel friends.
