In this dynamic episode from Pax8 Beyond 2025, Joey Pinz sits down with Pinar Ormeci, CEO of Timus Networks, for a refreshingly personal and strategic conversation about the future of MSP securityāand the mindset shifts that fuel real change.
From her love of Legos and pickleball to her experience shedding 120 pounds and redefining identity, Pinar shares how life outside of work deeply informs her leadership inside it. She opens up about her journey from enterprise sales to leading a fast-growth cybersecurity startup committed to replacing outdated VPNs with always-on encrypted access.
Pinar explains how Timus Networks empowers MSPs by giving them back control of the network stack, improving client intimacy, and transforming security from a cost center into a growth enabler. She emphasizes the importance of listening to partners, iterating based on feedback, and showing up as a vendor that truly cares.
This episode weaves together cybersecurity, mental clarity, and personal evolutionāwith humor, grit, and actionable insight. Whether you're building your business or building a 5,000-piece Lego set, Pinar shows why focus and flexibility are everything.
