About
As an accomplished Cybersecurity leader with a rich and diverse 20-year journey, I have honed a unique skill set to confront and conquer complex business and security challenges, forging innovative and impactful solutions.
My global travels have allowed me to establish and oversee top-tier security programs for prestigious global corporations, ensuring their digital fortresses remain impregnable. Furthermore, I take pride in leading transformative initiatives in the aftermath of significant cybersecurity incidents, with a dedicated focus on multi-tenant services.
Throughout my career, my passions have evolved, and now my primary objective lies in addressing the diversity gap within the industry. Empowering minorities and women is not just a goal but a driving force that fuels my dedication to making Cybersecurity an inclusive and welcoming space for all. Together, let's build a stronger, safer, and more diverse cybersecurity community.
