Leader of the US Industrial Manufacturing Cyber Security business plus the insider threat management service and National Security services (FedRamp, CFIUS, DFARS, CMMC, TISAX, Supply Chain, etc.). Each of these endeavors were high margin affairs which created larger cross sell for other KPMG Advisory services inside and outside of the Cyber Security practice.I also provided executive coaching using a method I developed from a combination of my graduate research and my own leadership experiences and observations spanning 30+ years over the past 5 decades. This coaching is focused on helping "high potential" executives get there and new executives accelerate.https://advisory.kpmg.us/events/podcast-homepage/advice-worth-keeping/podcast-cyber-security-industrial-manufacturing.html

As a Supervisory Special Agent, I built a cyber offense unit and capabilities & led all cyber offensive operations in support of counterterrorism, counterintelligence, and cybercrime matters. My team and I worked closely with other elements of the US Intelligence Community to conduct cyber special operations against enemies of the State and its citizens using our arsenal of cyber weapons. Later, I transferred to the FBI's Critical Incident Response Group to help develop and lead a crisis response organization charged with countering WMD threats on US soil working closely with the Department of Defense's Joint Special Operations Command, White House, and other government agencies.I started investigating cybercrime as a Special Agent when it began in the 1990s and led cyber battles against all threat actors: foreign intelligence services; transnational criminal enterprises; rogue individuals; and insiders. Prior to cybercrime, I investigated public corruption and government fraud. I was a first responder to the 9/11 terror attacks and part of a leadership team that covered 5000+ leads related to that incident.

I founded the firm to develop strategies, implement/operate technologies, and monitor networks for threats to trade secrets and business disruption. Our clients were publicly-traded Fortune 500 organizations. I led the firm to a 400% revenue growth during my tenure.
