SEATTLE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--F5 (NASDAQ: FFIV) today announced the appointment of Angelique Okeke as Executive Vice President and General Counsel. Okeke succeeds Scot Rogers, who is departing after 20 years with the company.

“Angelique is an accomplished executive and strategic thinker, combining a sharp legal mind with an empathetic approach to leadership,” said François Locoh-Donou, President and CEO of F5. “She has already been a force for positive change at F5, and her addition to our executive team will strengthen our ability to capture emerging opportunities and navigate the challenges of our fast-changing industry.”
