Summary
I’m an experienced global intelligence and diplomacy leader with unique expertise at the nexus of security, trust, and global risk. Trust and risk management are two sides of the same coin, and are the foundational pillars of my work leading high-stakes organizations through the complexities and nuance of global geopolitical risk, threats to cyber security, and critical infrastructure resilience. As a diplomatic and strategic advisor, I focus on bilateral and multilateral partnerships and policy globally, leading efforts to mitigate shared risks and threats. In earlier roles as a senior U.S. intelligence officer, my intelligence and operational risk background includes leading teams in a wide range of sectors from space to transportation, telecommunications, energy, and others. CORE STRENGTHS: • Managing global risk—cyber, data, infrastructure, geopolitical, financial • Building consensus across contentious issues and diverse stakeholders • Global strategic planning & international affairs • Driving transformational initiatives & alliances • Translating technical intelligence and risk into human and enterprise strategy Prior to government service, I worked in Silicon Valley for startup and Fortune 500 companies managing product and corporate marketing for award-winning product lines. ★ Keynote speaker & panelist ★ Active TS/SCI clearance w/polygraph
