“I wanted to work with an exciting and revolutionary product set in a fast-paced, growing business,” said Tozer. “Changing the way the company works with partners has been very rewarding, and I still like to work on specific deals to keep my hand in at street level, as it’s never good to get too detached from what’s really going on.”
