description: "As the Leader of the Physical Security Practice here at Telaid, we help retailers simultaneously reduce loss and enhance customer service and operations with unified physical security solutions and day 2 services. I have 25-plus years’ experience in Loss Prevention, beginning my own career in retail loss prevention, then transitioning into technology solutions. I am passionate about advancing my clients’ business objectives with the latest physical security hardware, software, and managed services. At the same time, I understand practicality the limitations associated with shrinking budgets. Whether you have a legacy system that you want to position for future use, or you are seeking a cutting-edge physical security deployment, I can start with your current business objectives and challenges and develop a cost effective, sustainable solution that helps maximize your budget and resources. For more than 35 years, Telaid has provided retailers with a single point of contact and technology expertise that reduces time, cost, task and risk on each engagement. Telaid has expertise in the following areas: • Unified physical security solutions • Rapid technology deployments (including infrastructure & electrical) • Asset lifecycle management (cradle-to-grave technology support) • Wireless networks and infrastructure"
