Gary Mitchell

Director, Higher Education Market Development

With more than 20 years experience in public & private education, SLED, U.S federal as well as  international  business development leadership roles, I have enjoyed building teams which solve complex technical, compliance and procurement challenges leading to value add solution deployments.  My career has taken me thought several critical industries including wire & cable, datacenter, records management and signal transmission in “cannot fail’ environments where customer expectations are at the highest levels and  the compliance environments are the tip of the spear for data privacy and protection.  

Upon completion of a Masters in Public Administration at UNC Charlotte, I spent six years working for a Member of Congress learning federal procurement processes.  Since that time, I have been in the private sector serving higher education and public sector.  As the Global Director of Market Development Gary has had the opportunity to work specifically with Higher Education campuses,  University Systems and Community Colleges as they transition into the world of Wi-Fi 7.
