Lewis started his career in the MSP channel, spending six years as a System Administrator, Manager of Service Delivery, and IR Lead with a break/fix operation that eventually matured to a full MSP. Lewis joined N‑able in 2018 as a Sales Engineer, and in 2021 became a member of the Head Nerds team.

In his downtime, you can find him hosting gameshows at sci-fi conventions, tinkering with microcontrollers that have way too many LEDs, or reading endless threat-intelligence feeds. He’s also very proud of his daughter, but if we got into all of the reasons for that we’d be here for quite a while.
