Bio

I am a solutions strategist and seasoned marketing leader with a focus on cyber security, DevOps, CloudOps, and software innovation. My own experience as an IT leader and technologist helps me better translate complex technologies into customer benefits. I am proud to have been an integral part of GitLab's growth from $10m, through IPO, and on to what it is today. Now I'm bringing that expertise to Firefly, a seed-funded start-up that will modernize how IT manages the cloud. My O'Reilly book, ''10 steps to secure next generation software'' is intended to help security professionals understand how software development is changing and the impact upon application security programs. Get it here: https://www.oreilly.com/library/view/10-steps-every/9781492082910/ Ask me about accelerating, managing, and securing the modern software factory and its cloud infrastructure while using collaborative workflows that are more effective, efficient, and transparent. As a seasoned marketer, I have experience with solutions, GTM strategy, demand gen, ABM, partner marketing, sales enablement, customer advocacy, and more.
