Synchronoss (NASDAQ:SNCR) is a global leader in secure, white label managed mobility and digital solutions for Service Providers and TMT's.

My life centers around three things: my family, mobile technology and our people at AT&T Mobility. I’m proud to have worked for one of the most innovative technology companies in the world for almost 25 years. My career began in the early days of the wireless industry at McCaw Cellular. Over the last two decades, I have been very fortunate to be a part of ushering in the modern wireless and smartphone era and was also privileged to help AT&T take a leading role in bringing wireless connectivity to tablets, cars, consumer electronics devices and more. AT&T has been an innovation machine, building AT&T Digital Life as a start-up inside of AT&T, the company’s home automation and security business. We’ve also fostered start-ups like the Emerging Devices Organization (now called the Internet of Things Organization), launched the Aio prepaid wireless business and then combined it with Cricket, which we recently welcomed to the AT&T team. The focus on innovation and the willingness of AT&T leadership to take risks and invest first in many areas has made us an innovation leader. I am also proud to have been a part of some incredible projects working with incredibly talented people both inside of AT&T and outside: like bringing both the first iPhone and iPad to AT&T; bringing Amazon’s Kindle to AT&T; and bringing General Motors/OnStar connected cars into the AT&T family, as well as many, many others. Prior to entering the wireless industry, I was able to live out my dream to play professional soccer for teams representing Cleveland, Atlanta, Milwaukee and Portland. I thought at that time it would be very hard to replace soccer until I found the incredibly competitive and dynamic wireless communications industry almost 25 years ago. Now, as wireless has become the center of our lives and is quickly moving to where everything is connected, AT&T has invested and innovated ahead of others. We are ready to meet and exceed the challenges ahead, as we've done for years.
