About Me

When your company faces critical security challenges- whether it's preparing for acquisition, achieving compliance, or accelerating revenue- you need more than checkboxes.
You need strategic expertise that transforms security from a blocker into a business enabler.

With over ten years of expertise, I craft bespoke cybersecurity strategies to safeguard your business and achieve commercial success through risk based security controls. Work the way you work.
I believe that good work cultures breed good security culture, and believe doing the right thing comes before anything else.
‍
I believe in social mobility, diversity, and helping others thrive. I share my experiences as a senior leader in tech from a non-traditional background (I'm a linguist!) to encourage different thinkers to get involved in the industry.
