Todd’s leadership expertise is only bested by his enthusiasm—for life, for people and for the synergy that comes from working toward a common goal. With 16 years of highly successful sales experience, his positive energy and proven success fosters loyalty from coworkers and clients alike—which he attributes to one thing.

“Years ago I learned that every successful endeavor in life, personal or professional, begins with listening. To my clients, to my colleagues… to my own intuition. Active listening—not simply hearing—is the only way we can deliver an exceptional client experience. I’m passionate about making sure that happens in every Ident Solutions interaction.”

Todd started at Ident Solutions as their Director of Government Operations in April 2018. Within two years his excellent leadership skills shot him into a VP of Sales and Marketing role, and then into his current role as Chief Revenue Officer.

Todd’s other passions include all things fitness and spending time with his favorite people: his wife, Trish, and their three children.
