“We brought Vaishali on board because she has a reputation of being the best in the industry,” said Joe Gaitley, Cribl’s senior director of sales for the Western U.S. and Canada. “She has a track record of successfully building SLED territories by focusing on delivering value for her customers.”
Patel told Industry Insider — California that she’s enthusiastic about her new role, including engaging with the California Department of Technology (CDT) and other state departments.
“I am incredibly excited to join the Cribl team as their first SLED RSM for the West,” she said. “With California’s focus on data with the creation of the Office of Data and Innovation and CDT’s focus on a centralized SOC [Security Operations Center], getting the right data to the right destination is going to be a key focus in government. This happens to be Cribl’s exact focus, and my role will be to help security, business and applications teams within state, county, city and higher-ed entities to achieve this goal.”
Patel is a graduate of the University of Texas at Austin, where she earned her bachelor’s degree in psychology/business and was active in the Alpha Pi Omega and Sigma Pi Omega societies.
