Russell Keddie is a managing partner at Liberty Security who believes empowering the customer is a key to success. Liberty Security has offices in Edmonton, Calgary, and Red Deer, Alberta. It provides security, automation and energy management solutions across Canada. Recently, Professional Security spoke with Keddie about Liberty Security.
► Keddie: Liberty was founded by my partner Nathan Baldry. In 2005, he was a university student working as a technician for an American summer program and was asked to start up an office in Alberta when some work visas fell through. After that summer, Nate and a friend decided they could start up on their own, and with a couple of friends they did just that. I met him while I was a vice president at VOXCOM when they were just firing up operations. We signed Liberty up as a dealer in early 2006. I left VOXCOM in 2008 after it was purchased by Reliance and joined Liberty in 2009.
