A team like no other
The perfect blend of IT experts and legal minds.
Leadership team
Jim Delkousis
CEO & FOUNDER
Jim founded PERSUIT, in part, to encourage his children not to play it safe, and to follow their dreams. Monkey see, monkey do. He’s also a long time sufferer of imposter syndrome.
🐒 🏋️♂️ 👨👩👧👦
Travis Johnson
CTO and office barista
Travis is from Montana, but we don’t hold that against him. He is our tech wizard, but more importantly, our office clown and personal barista.
🤠 🤡 ☕️
Frank Festa
Head of Enterprise Sales
Frank comes from the New York startup scene and leads PERSUIT’s enterprise sales team. When Frank is not making magic happen at the office, you can find him on the slopes, racing his bike, or nearly burning down the kitchen.

David Falstein
DIRECTOR, CLIENT STRATEGY AND SUCCESS
David comes from the legal sourcing world and loves creative pricing models. When he’s not helping clients build the perfect RFP or AFA, David is probably building a sub-par fantasy football team.

Maciek Kiernikowski
Head of Sales & Growth, Asia Pacific
Maciek is an adventure seeker, in work and play. With a passion for fast vehicles and extreme sports, he wishes he was fitter to keep up with his twin 10 yo boys. In summer, you will find him on the lake trying not to hurt himself wake surfing.

Laura Spalding
Client strategy & Success Manager
Laura is a corporate and commercial lawyer with an obsession with all things legal, tech and entrepreneurship. When she’s not making sure clients have a flawless PERSUIT experience, she’s on a Citibike looking for the best coffee in New York.
🚲 ✨ ☕️
Jerry Zhang
CLIENT STRATEGY & SUCCESS MANAGER
Jerry saw an opportunity to work at an exciting start up with a great team and tremendous growth potential. He enjoys cooking, wine, carpentry, writing, gardening and MMA “(though I’m a bit of jack of all trades, master of none).”
🤼🍷🪚
Nick Bye
VP Sales, North America
Nick comes from the e-Billing world of legal tech, so he gets it. Outside work, you can find Nick at the beach or the local golf course.

Jack Yumulu
Project Coordinator (Security & Compliance)
Jack has battle scars being relentless with customer service, project management, and process improvements. Within his first few months at PERSUIT he showed us that every organization needs a ‘Jack’ to help them grow up. When he’s not obsessing over what’s next for PERSUIT (which is rare), he is enjoying family time and loves horse riding.
