"We're truly excited to have Dave on the team," said Ted Myers, Founder and CEO of Totum Labs.  "Our goal was to bring the voice of the customer front and center into our product and service offerings, so we were looking for a proven leader with both deep commercial and deep technical roots.  Dave's experience and insights in the wireless and IoT space brings this and so much more to the table.  We already feel his impact."
