Our technology team is packed with cryptographers, artificial intelligent experts, hardware designers and solutions engineers who have previously maintained the entire Department of Defense IT infrastructure. In fact, eight of our expert team members carry the highest-level DOD security clearances.
Our team also has a successful background in worldwide deployments. They skillfully handle IT security through their experience with the United States government. (Of course, for the rest of us at PROVEN, their intense tactical training makes company-sponsored paintball activities more like Seal training than a week-day off-site team-building game!) As technology improves so will our tech stack. PROVEN is constantly upgrading equipment, training and security measures. Our commitment is to excellence.

JP Robinson
Chief Marketing Officer
As a creative entrepreneur with the unique ability to translate concepts into compelling brands, I recognize that great ideas transcend the traditional restrictions of markets and industries. I pursue inventive ways to ensure ideas resonate with consumers. My success can be attributed to my ability to bring storytelling and products together, build brands that reflect the understanding of customers’ world views, and create connections to the values of the market.
I have devoted my career to finding beauty in everyday life and associating that beauty with brands in the minds of target customers. I seek visual, imaginative, and experiential beauty and translate those into tangible customer experiences. I am presently working with Visit Mexico to build awareness and drive interest in tourism to the country from customers in the United States. Part of my work entails revitalizing the creative assets in use, ensuring that all messaging is market-focused and on point, and leveraging customer-centric content to drive engagement. By using interactive, personalized content, I have increased awareness and encouraged customer interaction with the brand. Ultimately, I’m helping the organization create a story or mythology about a hypothetical experience and drawing parallels between the brand and customers’ values.
