Throughout my professional journey – from the Department of Defense and the Intelligence Community, to the world's largest social media company and the world’s largest home accommodation and travel company– I’ve been found operating at the complex intersections of national and international affairs, safety and security, diplomacy, technology, and empathy.Whether countering international or domestic terrorism, addressing the threat of cyber intrusions, combating malign foreign influence, responding to mass shootings, tackling opioid trafficking, curbing hate crimes, combating human trafficking, or addressing crimes against children, I've held a central role in responding to these global threats, now propelled at the rapid pace of social media and technology. Throughout the journey, I've not only navigated the complexities, but have excelled in high-pressure environments, effecting positive change in the world, ensuring people's safety, managing corporate risk, and driving strategic outcomes.My core philosophy is rooted in the belief that no challenge is insurmountable as long as it's approached with a genuine spirit of collaboration, cooperation, and transparent communication. This guiding principle remains the cornerstone of all my endeavors.My competencies are well-documented across the private sector, in federal, state, and local law enforcement communities, and within the highest echelons of the U.S. Government, including interactions with the President, National Security Council, Intelligence Community, Department of Defense, and Congress. I've distinguished myself through an innate ability to cultivate and sustain meaningful and effective strategic, operational, and tactical-level relationships.Culturally astute and adaptable, I have a proven track record in directing planning and operations, fostering collaboration among diverse stakeholders, and building high-performing teams.My strengths encompass a wide array of areas, including Global Affairs, Government Relations, International Security, Strategic Communications, Interagency Coordination, Cross-Functional Collaboration, Partnership Development, Public Speaking, Intelligence Analysis and Operations, Team Building, and Mentorship.On mentorship - I view mentorship as a solemn privilege. After all, what is the purpose of knowledge and experience, if we don’t GIFT it to others and uplift them on their journey.
