Global CISO · Founder · Speaker
I make cybersecurity make sense.
I help security and IT leaders — CISOs, CIOs, and the teams behind them — move from noise and exposure to clear decisions, stronger systems, and earned trust.
Book a strategy call
Clarity is a competitive advantage.
Why leaders call me
Because the stakes are too high for theatre.
25+
Years in technology
I have spent my career where technology, risk, and real-world decisions collide.
20
Years in information security
I build security programs that can stand up to scrutiny — and still help a business move.
01
Clear point of view
Security is leadership work. Tools matter, but judgment is what changes outcomes.
24/7
When the work gets real
Through Stealth-ISS, my team brings consulting, professional services, MSSP, and incident response together.
My signature approach
Make it clear. Make it usable. Make it last.
01
Name the real risk
I translate technical exposure into the business decision underneath it — what is at stake, who owns it, and what good looks like.
02
Build the operating muscle
Strategy becomes resilience when teams, policies, monitoring, vendors, and response plans work together in practice.
03
Lead with confidence
I leave leaders with a shared language, a decision path, and the confidence to keep improving long after the engagement ends.
The Stealth-ISS perspective
Security is not a department. It is how trust operates.
I lead Stealth-ISS Group, a total cyber solutions partner for organizations that take security seriously. Together, we help leaders prepare, respond, and keep moving through cybersecurity consulting, professional services, managed security services, 24/7 monitoring, compliance, risk management, vCISO support, and incident response.

What leaders remember
Clarity that travels.
Client names stay private when the work demands it. The outcomes do not.
