*"With Great Risk Comes Great Reward"*

*A (Tech) Road Less Traveled with ISC's CEO Jeff Osborn*

"When you're a kid working with venture capitalists, everybody talks about
taking their money and running to a tropical island…and nobody ever does.
But I did," Jeff Osborn, president and CEO of Internet Systems Consortium
(ISC), a leading developer of DNS (BIND) and DHCP open-source software,
said.

"I was 37 years old. I took 15 years off, raced sailboats all over the
Caribbean, and blew a king's ransom having way too much fun," he continued.

*Why it's worth your time:* Jeff has been a member of NANOG since 2013 and
represents our community's incredible professionals. Learn more about his
