Merchants of all sizes, especially global ones, are becoming increasingly aware of the need to constantly innovate and push the boundaries of their payment capabilities. BR-DGE has a massive opportunity to help them on this journey and become the transformational payments platform for them . This core mission of BR-DGE’s immediately resonated with me.

My core belief is that people are what makes a company successful. At BR-DGE, I’m inspired by the thriving, collaborative and community culture that’s infused throughout the whole company, from the ground up to the leadership level. I can’t wait to join the whole BR-DGE team along this fantastic journey in helping customers solve their payment problems.”
