About

Thanks for stopping by, here’s a bit about me. With over 15 years of experience in Security & SaaS sectors, I’ve held senior roles across marketing, account development, and business development - always with a focus on creating strategies that align with customer needs and business objectives. My background in marketing and communications gives me a customer-first mindset, which I carry into every conversation, whether it’s about securing digital assets or scaling revenue. Today, I’m an Account Executive at Bugcrowd, the pioneer and global leader in crowdsourced cybersecurity. I work with security leaders worldwide to help them strengthen their defenses with our External Attack Surface Management (EASM), Penetration Testing as a Service (PTaaS), and Bug Bounty solutions built on the power of the crowd. Prior to Bugcrowd, I spent five years helping scale Informer.io across the UK, US, and Europe, which led to our acquisition by Bugcrowd. If you’re looking to evolve your security strategy with a more proactive, continuous, and adversary-informed approach let’s connect.
