I'm an innovator. A problem-solver. And an anti-status-quo champion. I'm also an accomplished cybersecurity executive with 10 years of experience leading complex projects, building high-performing teams, and transforming critical IT programs in the public and private sectors. I believe that every project is an opportunity for teams to work smarter. I also believe that good risk management is an underutilized resource in today’s cybersecurity toolkit. With deep expertise in cybersecurity and risk management practices and a proven project management and consulting background, I help organizations solve their most difficult IT challenges.As a Forrester analyst, I help clients transform their security and risk programs to drive measurable business value. Previously, I served as NASA’s very first Chief Cybersecurity Risk Officer, leading a team working to design and deliver a world-class cyber risk and resilience program. I co-led an intergovernmental team that helps agencies and industry partners adopt forward-thinking risk management practices to make better cybersecurity decisions. You may have seen me speaking at forums like the RSA Conference, FAIRCON, DOE CyberCon, and Forrester Security & Risk Forum. Outside of work, you'll find me in line at any of Denver's great coffee shops, exploring the bike trails, or planning my next trip abroad! Let's connect and work together.
