"Bringing Your Weird" Spurs Growth

The day California shut down for the Covid pandemic in March 2020 was the same day Jill Stelfox and her colleague Dan Wald schmidt signed the term sheet to buy Silicon Valley based Panzura, the market leader in hybrid multi-cloud data management.

When Stelfox finally met her employees about 100 faces on a videoconference during lockdown-she recognized the unique challenges ahead.

"Imagine meeting all these people on Zoom who don't know if they're coming back to work or if the company is surviving, and I'm like, 'Hi! I'm your new CEO!"" says Stelfox, a former certified public accountant (CPA) who helped develop player tracking software for the National Football League (NFL).
