About Michelle Kincaid

Michelle Kincaid is the director of communications for Kentik. Previously, she ran a cybersecurity news site in Washington, DC and then moved to San Francisco to run public relations programs for US and EMEA-based cybersecurity startups. In 2015, while serving as a director at global communications agency LEWIS, Michelle met Avi Freedman and the Kentik (then-CloudHelix) team and served as a PR consultant for the company’s launch from stealth.

When not nerding out to news on hacking and internet outages, you can find Michelle offline and out on the hiking trails.
