Atlanta, GA, Aug. 10, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Flock Safety, the first public safety operating system aiming to eliminate crime within an ethical framework, today announces the addition of Jennifer Ceran, who previously served as Chief Financial Officer of Smartsheet (NYSE: SMAR) and Quotient Technologies (NYSE: QUOT). Ceran will serve as independent Board Director and Audit Chair at Flock Safety, partnering with newly-installed CFO James LaCamp.
In addition to her position on the Flock Safety Board, Ceran currently serves on several public and private boards including NerdWallet, Riskified, Wyze and Klaviyo. In addition to her experience as CFO of two public technology companies, she has held leadership roles on the finance teams at Box and eBay.
“Jennifer will be a key partner for myself, James LaCamp, and the rest of the leadership team as Flock Safety continues to level up and move into the next phase of our business,” said Garrett Langley, Flock Safety’s Co-Founder and CEO.
Ceran’s history of supporting finance teams at high-growth, billion-dollar companies will be critical at Flock Safety, which continues to grow over 100% year-over-year.

"I am excited to bring my experience to bear for a company solving as massive of a problem as crime. Flock as a business is exciting, but Flock as a mission-driven organization has the potential to improve the world we live in.”
