"Shawn intimately understands the technology space," said H.I.G. Capital Managing Partner, Aaron Tolson. "We are confident that with his stewardship, GDT is poised to build on our position as a high-performance, growth-oriented IT solutions provider." Dan Mosley, the firm's Chief Revenue Officer, has been functioning as interim CEO while the search was conducted. Dan will reassume the full-time role of CRO.

"The market needs more help than ever to navigate the evolving technology landscape. Modern network demands, hybrid multi-cloud architectures, and cybersecurity challenges present both opportunities and risks for our customers.
