ABOUT DAVID STRICKLAND

I\'ve spent my career at the intersection of two things I believe in deeply. Technology and People, and how to bring them together in a way that serves the greater good. As COO of Kenton Brothers Systems for Security, I have the honor to serve and lead a team that delivers enterprise-level physical security solutions. Locksmith services, access control, IP video surveillance, intrusion detection, weapons detection, AI-integrated analytics, robotics, and more, to commercial, industrial, government, and educational organizations across the country. Our mission is protecting People, Property, and Possessions, and since since 1897, that mission is still what gets us up in the morning. But what drives me personally is simpler than any technology stack. It\'s watching someone on my team step into a version of themselves they didn\'t know was possible. It\'s building something with people I respect, toward a purpose that matters. It\'s showing up for my colleagues, and the clients who trust us with something as important as the safety of their staff and loved ones. I\'m passionate about the convergence of physical and cyber security, the evolution of what enterprise protection looks like, and the kind of leadership that creates more leaders. If you\'re here because you share any of that, let\'s connect. I\'d love to know what you\'re building.
