I am a cybersecurity leader with a different approach. I am the Executive Officer at PurePoint International, and Head Visionary of our brand Consciously Secure Living (CSL). Since the company started, CSL has addressed unique and important concerns raised by members in our PurePoint community to support our leaders where they are and help them create inner security so they can create outer security for those they care about most, particularly, women, vulnerable and underrepresented populations, including people of color, women and Black communities.
