SoundThinking, Inc. (Nasdaq: SSTI) (formerly

combines data-driven solutions and strategic advisory services for
law enforcement and community assistance groups, today announced
changes to its leadership team.
After rebranding earlier this year, launching the SafetySmart™
platform, and recently acquiring SafePointe, SoundThinking has
expanded its leadership team to position itself for the expanding
growth opportunities it believes it has ahead.
Greg Holifield, founder and CEO of SafePointe, has joined
SoundThinking’s leadership team as Managing Director. SafePointe is
an intelligent weapons detection system that provides secure,
low-friction screening for workplaces, museums, schools, casinos,
financial institutions, and hospitals.
New hires include:

Success and Analytics. Previous Experience: Accenture, IBM and
InsWeb, a high-growth startup.
- Anne Mueller has been named Senior Vice President, Human
Resources. Previous Experience: Forge (financial services), Conifer
Financial Services.
- Mark Page has been named Senior Vice President, Project
Management, Field Services and Customer Support. Previous
Experience: Long-tenured executive at AT&T.
Additionally, the Marketing and Product organizations will now
be separated to provide senior leadership and focus in these two
strategic areas.
- Sam Klepper, previously SVP of Marketing and Product, has been
named Senior Vice President, Product Management and Corporate
Development. Sam has been instrumental in building the ShotSpotter
and SoundThinking brands over the last 5 years and will now lead a
dedicated team to help drive innovation and expand the SafetySmart
platform. His previous experience includes roles at Intuit,
Microsoft, eMeter and Bain Consulting.
- Gregg Makuch, previously the Interim SVP of Marketing and
Product, has been named Senior Vice President, Marketing. Gregg
recently joined SoundThinking during Sam’s leave of absence and
will now lead a dedicated team to embrace digital opportunities to
further build awareness and drive demand for the SafetySmart
platform. His previous experience includes roles at
PricewaterhouseCoopers, Deloitte, RealNetworks, and aQuantive.
Finally, Nasim Golzadeh, in addition to her role as Managing
Director of Technologic (formerly LEEDS), has been promoted to
Executive Vice President, Engineering for Investigative Solutions.
Nasim will bring her broad expertise and experience honed over 30
years managing complex engineering and service organizations. Her
previous experience includes roles at Central Square and
TriTech.
“SoundThinking is excited to welcome this talented group into
their new leadership positions,” said Ralph Clark, President and
