The new board brings LifeLine Response thought leaders from influential and complementary industries, as the leading personal safety company’s proprietary algorithms and data offer proactive threat intelligence including geopolitical instability and local security threats; an unparalleled source of data in the industry.
To advise on the company’s continued global expansion, LifeLine Response welcomes Mark Davies, Chief Financial Officer for the leading smart-home security provider, Vivint Inc.

Before Alcoa, Davies helped lead the global business transformation during his 12 years at Dell, Inc. and served as Chief Financial Officer at Global Consumer Group.
Another notable board member joining the team is Keith Sherwell, Chief Information Officer for telecommunications firm, Cablevision Systems Corp. In his advisory role, Sherwell is responsible for conceptualizing and implementing technology strategies to further develop Lifeline Response’s business objectives. Previously, Sherwell was Chief Information Officer at Office Depot International where he was a crucial advisor for the brand during its merger with Office Max in 2013.
With his background in corporate and government security, Gaylen Heyborne also brings great perspective to the LifeLine Response team. As Director of Corporate Security for Groupon Inc., Heyborne understands the importance of using advanced technology to protect people both inside and outside of office walls.
