Forrest Tracy
Bio
I am the Director of Engineering at Livefront
I followed an atypical path to become an engineering leader. I spent years in project management and retail sales gaining experience leading through layers of managers to achieve results. After switching careers to become a software engineer, I started as an individual contributor in tech. I soon became a Senior Engineer, and then I began getting opportunities to leverage my years of leadership experience in partnership with my technical expertise. Bringing together my diverse professional experiences has helped me to be successful as a leader with many different teams.
