Mike Hoffman, SBI's Chief Executive Officer, commented, "Lisa is a highly experienced marketer, exceptional communicator, and strategic advisor who has excelled in the role of CMO within high-velocity and enterprise sales organizations. Her addition to the board will play a pivotal role in driving SBI's growth not only in 2023 but also in the years ahead.
