Speaker: Bill Patterson

Like you, marketing and sales executive Bill Patterson is passionate about telling a good story. That’s especially easy with 17 years of experience at OpSec Security where he has been an integral part of the Marketing and Sales management team.

Prior to his current role as Vice President, Corporate Marketing, Bill was the Vice President of Global Licensing with responsibility for the brand and royalty protection of OpSec’s licensing clients including MLB, NFL, NBA, NHL, NASCAR, Learfield Licensing (now CLC), "I Love NY", NYC & Company, Hard Rock Café, and many, many others.

After receiving his bachelors and masters degrees at Virginia Tech, his 25-year career has spanned the industries of home improvement retail, direct marketing agencies and video gaming with responsibilities including advertising, marketing, direct-mail, communications, loyalty programs, brand management and sales management.

When he’s not sharing the OpSec story, Bill enjoys spending time with family, traveling and playing basketball and baseball. As a nearly lifelong Marylander, all you need to get to know Bill is some wings, crabs and Old Bay.
