Dave is Founder and CEO of INKY, whose flagship INKY Phish Fence platform leads the email security market for MSPs. Arguably the biggest cybersecurity problem today, phishing drives over $1.5B/year of theft, PII exfiltration and credential harvesting. Prior to INKY, Dave co-developed the world-renowned Crash Bandicoot series at Naughty Dog, as one of the two developers on the original title for PlayStation 1. After Naughty Dog, Dave co-founded travel search company ITA Software, where he oversaw software development, operations, and customer success. ITA grew to over 500 employees before its April 2011 sale to Google for $700M, at which point it was Google’s sixth largest acquisition ever. Dave holds a B.S./B.A. in Computer Science and Linguistics from the University of Maryland, College Park, as well as a S.M. in Computer Science from MIT. Dave lives with his wife Kip in Maryland; the couple have two children, both currently attending college.
