Bio

I am a Cybersecurity Executive who has spent the past 20+ years of my career in various IT and IT Security roles with over a decade of experience in the managed services space. My work focuses on helping organizations achieve cyber resilience through effective and efficient combinations of people, process, and technology; as well as influencing the rapid transformation and market value of high-growth, disruptive cybersecurity start-ups through market research and education, thought leadership and evangelism, product messaging, competitive differentiation, and roadmap guidance. In addition to my work at eSentire, I'm also an adjunct professor of Cybersecurity at Yeshiva University and am currently pursuing my PhD in Cybersecurity Leadership. My mission is to help drive the growth and success of the cybersecurity industry by researching and addressing current industry challenges and trends, and taking an innovative approach to solving for current and future concerns. Part of growing the industry involves attracting and retaining top talent. I'm committed to creating a next generation of cybersecurity professionals that is as diverse and inclusive as possible. Our adversaries come from all backgrounds and perspectives, and so should we. Outside of work I enjoy spending time with my family, coaching women’s tackle football, watching Cartoon Network, and eating Apple Jacks.
