Don Judson is an accomplished executive with over 25 years of experience in information technology, finance, operations, and consulting. He brings considerable expertise in information technology (IT) operations, information security, financial reporting systems, profit and loss reporting (P&L), and business strategy. Through his extensive consulting experience, Don offers a strong understanding of various IT services markets throughout North America.

Prior to his role at Nerac, Don co-founded OpenSky Corporation, an IT professional services firm.
