Experienced Cyber Security Executive with two decades of expertise in information technology, cyber security, and the defense industrial base. Proven record in aligning governance and risk management strategies with business objectives in technology-driven environments. Demonstrated ability in leading collaborative teams, driving innovative security compliance and risk management solutions, and enhancing mission-critical operations and national defense capabilities. I am committed to building high performing teams and fostering a culture of honesty and accountability. One part of my job I absolutely love? Talking shop with customers and partners, breaking down cyber stuff into conversations that drive big-time security wins across the board.
