At Zapproved, Harris was responsible for driving the company’s growth in the corporate legal segment, advising clients on best practices for data preservation and ediscovery, and managing the company’s product development strategy.

Harris is a frequent author and speaker on ediscovery, an active member of several The Sedona Conference working groups, and teaches as an Adjunct Professor at Lewis & Clark Law School.
“I am tremendously excited to work with Hanzo’s pioneering team of technologists. The innovative legal hold solution Hanzo’s technology team developed for Slack is truly solving an acute problem, and it’s only just the start for enterprises looking for innovative and best-practice approaches for gaining control over their enterprise collaboration data and associated litigation costs,” said Harris.
Brad is based in Hanzo’s Portland, OR office — where the company is investing in growth and establishing a center of excellence to support the ediscovery and compliance markets.
