Aaron Kenny's Summary

My story is one of faith and pure determination. It started with borrowing money from friends and family to feed an infant idea, growing that idea into a multi-million dollar company, which was sold to the world’s leading online security company.

I’m an inventor, entrepreneur, problem solver, optimizer, and champion of ideas that grow up to be game changers. Equal parts right and left brain, I am just as comfortable working in Photoshop as working with code. I’m energized when surrounded by passionate people who are developing powerful products that solve real life problems. I love what happens when you stick to a great idea—and figure out the hard stuff.

I'm continually in pursuit of smarter technology. Now a Director of Engineering at McAfee, I continue to lead the team that builds family safety products, while keeping my eyes open for the “next big idea.”
