Executive profile

Technology strategy with security built in.

I am a technology executive with 18 years of experience spanning enterprise IT, cybersecurity, cloud infrastructure, business systems, automation, risk, and digital transformation.

Across healthcare, fintech, aerospace, SaaS, media, and legal services, I have helped leadership teams modernize operations, reduce risk, develop global teams, and align technology investment with business growth.

Startup & scale-up leadership

Much of my career has been spent in the technology startup and high-growth ecosystem, where platforms, teams, security programs, and operating models had to mature as quickly as the business. I bring the hands-on judgment needed to lead through ambiguity, lean resources, rapid change, and the transition from startup speed to enterprise scale.
