As an impact player with 18+ years in cybersecurity, I thrive on big missions alongside equally driven defenders. I've spent my career protecting everything from global enterprises to New York City itself, where I developed the first-of-its-kind centralized Threat Management program that became a blueprint for municipalities nationwide.

What I'm known for, and what leaders call on me for, is strategic architecture and enablement: taking a big vision, shaping it into the strategy that carries it, and building the operational structure and rhythms underneath that strategy so it actually moves. I've watched too many great visions stall from a lack of the scaffolding underneath them - the cadences, the ownership, the cross-functional muscle that turns a vision into something a team can run on every day. This is where I live - blending deep technical expertise with business acumen and creative strategy, moving seamlessly between the boardroom and the operations floor, equally effective setting direction with executives and building it out with the teams who make it real.

I lead the way I coach, which is hands-on and teaching as I go. That shows up whether I'm mentoring future security leaders at NYU Tandon School of Engineering or building security-conscious culture inside an organization—always making space for people to grow into the work, not just do it.

When I'm not defending critical environments, you might find me in the pages of "Women Know Cyber: 100 Fascinating Females Fighting Cybercrime", "Tribe of Hackers: Blue Team Edition", or writing about "Leading with Love." My work has earned recognition as "Best of New York" and led to a Security Team of the Year award for public sector.
