Dave Baggett ’92

Dave is Founder and CEO of INKY, whose flagship INKY Phish Fence platform leads the email security market for MSPs. Arguably the biggest cybersecurity problem today, phishing drives over $1.5B/year of theft, PII exfiltration and credential harvesting. Prior to INKY, Dave co-developed the world-renowned Crash Bandicoot series at Naughty Dog, as one of the two developers on the original title for PlayStation 1. After Naughty Dog, Dave co-founded travel search company ITA Software, where he oversaw software development, operations and customer success. ITA grew to over 500 employees before its April 2011 sale to Google for $700M, at which point it was Google’s sixth largest acquisition ever. Dave holds a B.S./B.A. in Computer Science and Linguistics from the University of Maryland, College Park, as well as a S.M. in Computer Science from MIT. Dave lives with his wife Kip in Maryland; the couple have two children, both currently attending college.
