"I am happy to be part of the Bond mission. Bond offers a unique and valuable service, enhancing peace-of-mind and personal security for individuals and families. In particular, I see great value in Bond’s 24/7 Personal Security Agents and the novel array of preventative services for situations that do not initially reach the severity of a 911 emergency call. This includes monitoring members and being by their side. Bond has taken a professional approach to designing its services, combining security expertise, technological innovation and exceptional performance."
