About

The only way to do great work, is to love what you do. I am enjoying 25+ years in the arena of information and Infosec leadership in the Finance, Medical, and non-profit industries. I started over 25 years ago as a Systems Engineer and worked through several roles over the last two decades to ultimately serve within the C-Suite; this experience has afforded me the ability to value the team and respect the strategic value of IT oversight. I consider myself to be a lifelong learner, completing my degree and certificate programs throughout my career journey. I feel most confident and comfortable steering the technology and infosec stack as a trusted partner. I consider myself a nerd, and love challenges. I enjoy working within and leading a team in fast paced and complex environment(s).
