Advisor Spotlight: Q. Wade Billings

Experts Matter

We have recently gathered together a knowledgeable and amazingly talented group of subject matter experts from information security and technology leadership to family governance and education. 

We are fortunate to call these individuals close advisors. In addition to our Founders' expertise, our advisors' collective knowledge and perspective are woven into everything we do, benefiting our clients.

Introducing Q. Wade Billings

Today, we are pleased to introduce Q. Wade Billings as the latest addition to our board of advisors. For the past 20+ years, Wade has helped to build, grow, and lead numerous engineering organizations with companies like Instructure, LowerMyBills, and, most recently, BetterUp, the leading SaaS provider of mental fitness services.

Wade has published multiple articles and papers on topics ranging from work culture to technology trends and advances. He has also served as a mentor and technology advisor to numerous early and mid-stage startups, many of whom have continued to grow and enjoy success.

His latest focus for the past several years has been championing DevOps and Site Reliability Engineering within organizations to improve their SaaS offerings’ observability, maintainability, and security.

I am excited to be part of the leafplanner family and to help them deliver the best and most secure product possible to market.

When first introduced to leafplanner, Wade stated, "I knew immediately that I wanted to help them succeed. My extensive experience designing, building, securing, and operating large-scale infrastructure and systems seemed particularly applicable to the team’s work. I am excited to be part of the leafplanner family and to help them deliver the best and most secure product possible to market."

We are thrilled to have Wade as a part of our Advisory Council. Welcome!
