Backblaze business backup<\/a> continues to grow and so does the department. Vincent has recently joined the team to help bring new clients to Backblaze! Let\u2019s learn a little more about Vincent, shall we?<\/p>\n

What is your Backblaze Title?<\/strong>
\nBusiness development representative<\/p>\n

Where are you originally from?<\/strong>
\nBorn and raised in San Jose, CA<\/p>\n

What attracted you to Backblaze?<\/strong>
\nThe solution, the culture of the company, and the great opportunity for growth with a company that is still growing.<\/p>\n

What do you expect to learn while being at Backblaze?<\/strong>
\nI expect to perfect my sales skills, become better at prospecting, and eventually move to a closing role. Beyond that; I would like to pursue a leadership role.<\/p>\n

Where else have you worked?<\/strong>
\nI was previously a business development representative at Panzura, selling their Hybrid-Cloud NAS solution. Before that, I was a renewal specialist<\/a> at Barracuda Networks renewing a wide range of networking solutions.<\/p>\n

Why do you like certain things?<\/strong>
\nI like things that force me to be creative.<\/p>\n

Favorite hobby?<\/strong>
\nI’ve been boxing for the past 8 years. I’m hoping to compete soon. My dad has been playing lead guitar in a band since his high school days, so naturally music has always been a part of my life. I’ve been producing music since 2005\/2006: everything from hip-hop, R & B, to smooth jazz. I’ve been DJing for a number of years and am always looking for my next gig.<\/p>\n

Favorite food?<\/strong>
\nToo many to name.<\/p>\n

Star Trek or Star Wars?<\/strong>
\nHaven’t seen either. I know, I know. You can’t believe it.<\/p>\n

Coke or Pepsi?<\/strong>
\nWhiskey<\/p>\n

Anything else you’d like to tell us?<\/strong>
\nHard work. Dedication. Everyone wants to be successful; no one wants to put the work in.<\/p>\n

Welcome to the team, Vincent! We may need your DJing skills at our next event!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
