Bio
Ed Borden
Vish is the jack-of-all-trades of the sales team at Bug Labs, running air cover for essentially every customer the company has or is trying to land. He is the solutions engineer, training guru, technical support manager and demo artist. He's called on equally for hardware problems as well as software, and has represented Bug Labs not only to partners and companies large and small, but also as a company spokesperson for the press. More importantly, Vish is exceptionally well cultured (I've heard), an incredible drummer (he claims), and is great with the ladies (hearsay).
