With a robust background in Agentic and Data Security, I help organizations understand the challenges they face and guide them to solutions to help them show value for their stakeholders and drive their business forward. As a rare technical and business grounded professional who has seen problems from every side of the table, I enjoy being given complex problems to solve for large clients with international business units. I have been advising WayFi Wireless on their innovative approach of innovative cellular and wifi technology to unlock new revenue streams for businesses and provide seamless cellular device coverage over wifi. Key areas I excel in are relationship development through instant trust and credibility through a network I have built over 20 years in my experience as an end client, decision maker, vendor, investor, and partner which has been instrumental in driving initiatives that resonate with stakeholders and ensuring delivery of outcomes that align with organizational values relying on trust, respect, and technical excellence.
