WatchGuard Video has announced new leadership roles in response to record-setting sales growth of its video evidence technology. Retired Chief of Police Michael Burridge has been named Senior Vice President of Sales, and Jason Stuczynski will identify and pursue key accounts as the Vice President of Strategic Sales.

"WatchGuard has been deploying video technology in the law enforcement sector at record-pace with strong industry indicators suggesting that demand will not only continue, but rise," said Steve Coffman, President of WatchGuard. "By diversifying our sales' leadership, we ensure we're well-situated to meet the needs of our current and future customers."

Chief Burridge joined WatchGuard Video in October 2015 as the Director of Strategic Accounts. He has been instrumental in acquiring numerous key accounts including the largest deployment of body cameras in the United States at the Houston Police Department in Houston, Texas. Mike is a twenty-six-year law enforcement veteran and a recognized expert on law enforcement camera and video technologies. As the Senior Vice President of Sales, he will provide vision and direction for all aspects of the WatchGuard sales' efforts and will serve as a vital member of the company's executive management team.

"Mike's brings a trifecta of experience to this executive role: subject-matter expertise, organizational management and technological prowess," said Coffman. "Combining all of that with his unwavering commitment to law enforcement puts us in an excellent position to continue leading the video evidence market."

Jason Stuczynski began as a Regional Sales Manager at WatchGuard in 2006 and was named Vice President of Sales in 2012. He has been instrumental in the company's growth in becoming the largest provider of video evidence systems for law enforcement in the United States and Canada.
