Derek Mitsumori
Marketing Manager
By day, Derek Mitsumori is a marketing manager at Cisco, focusing on all things cloud. What it is. Why it’s important. And how it impacts day to day life.
From a trajectory that started out studying engineering at UC Berkeley and the University of Michigan, he transitioned to marketing upon joining Cisco in 2006. Prior to joining Cisco, he lived the service provider life, having worked on the early days of VOIP and IP communications as an engineer at GTE, Genuity, Level3, and Verizon.
By night (and weekends), Derek is a family man, expending what little energy he has left on getting his daughters to do their homework sooner rather than “later,” to practice piano with at least a convincing amount of effort and attention to detail, and to limit their screen time. That last one is still a work in progress.
