Meet Our Award-Winning Team Members

Every year at TrustRadius we celebrate the TRUTH Awards! 

We recognize one team member who embodies each of our core values,

and one team member who embodies them all. 

Here are our winners for 2024:

“Being in Field Enablement at TrustRadius means I get to work with almost everyone at the company and that is exactly how I like it. That’s because the people at TrustRadius at every level are smart, passionate, fun, and innovative. I know it might sound cliche, but it’s 100% true.”

T.R.U.T.H. - Katie Pariseau - Director of Field Enablement

“TrustRadius is a great place to be.  Everyday I engage with a talented team that has a strong passion for what we do and for our customers.  I’m so proud to be able to be a part of this first class team!”

Transparent - Melissa Kelly - Director of Strategic Customer Success and CS Operations

“TrustRadius is an extremely supportive place to work. Everyone is rooting for each other to succeed individually, so we can succeed as a company. It is a great culture, and I am proud of what we are doing.”

Team Player - Art Pierce - Enterprise Account Executive

“You probably end up spending more time with your coworkers than any family members or friends while you’re in the middle of your career building years. For that reason, I have always found it important to bring the human aspect to interactions with coworkers as often as possible. The TrustRadius team is supportive of their employees in their professional and personal lives when needed and for that reason I’m thankful to work with incredible teammates who inspire me and bring joy to my life.”

Human - Kaylin Gilkey - Director of SEO & Engagement
