Leadership Team

In his role as CEO, Mark brings to bear over 20 years of experience developing and leading innovative technology companies.

Mark directs and drives the overall vision and strategy for SailPoint, which is underpinned by his commitment and passion for building top-performing teams, creating a collaborative and innovative work environment, and focusing continuously on the needs of customers.
