Bio

Fleet Defender, Inc. is a leading platform cybersecurity company that is paving the way with innovations in artificial intelligence-powered cyber defenses for land, sea, air, and space platforms. Fleet Defender detects anomalies and cyber intrusions in embedded system-of-systems and stops the attack to protect revenue, reputation, and life. I started with technology at a young age, teaching myself how to program computers in multiple languages and reverse engineer applications and video games. These skills served me well in my career when I worked as a Principal Cyber Engineer at Raytheon SI Government Solutions leading vulnerability research and exploitation programs for the U.S. Government and Department of Defense. I have held multiple leadership positions throughout my career to include Director of Cyber Research, Chief Technology Officer, and Chief Executive Officer. At the Nebraska Applied Research Institute I served as the Chief Technology Officer and built the vision and strategy across information technology and operational technology domains. I served as a Principal Cyber Engineer at Raytheon SI Government Solutions (now Raytheon CODEX) and built multiple transformative cyber programs for our military and intelligence community customers. I co-founded Red Berry Innovations and served as the Chief Executive Officer. My cybersecurity and artificial intelligence background merged to create a unique skill set and knowledge base that I applied to government and commercial programs focused on cyber warfare and next generation artificial intelligence system development. Now at Fleet Defender, I am leading its continuing evolution as a total platform intelligence company operating across all land, sea, air, and space domains. The result is a more safe and secure world for all its people. I am a strategic and futuristic thinker with innovative ideas and the ability to build amazing teams to turn them into highly profitable companies. I am a Global Industrial Cyber Security Professional (GICSP) and a Certified Information Security Manager (CISM).
