Experienced intelligence professional with a background in technical collection, processing, analysis, and dissemination of information. I'm a believer of data driven decision-making, without sacrificing the art of intelligence. Understanding the role of intelligence is a challenge for many organizations. Many steps of the intelligence process are spread across departments, so how do you apply the skills of a full-time intelligence team? I see the intelligence professional as 'organizer-in-chief' - pulling together disparate insights, assessing their significant in aggregate, and establishing a reliable system for independent discovery or interjecting at key decision points. Moreover, an intelligence program should never use brute-force; careful scrutiny of analyst-hours are the hallmarks of disciplined intelligence.
