Experience

1. Chief Marketing Officer

   Horizon3.ai

   Dec 2025 — Present · San Francisco, CA, US

   Horizon3.ai is the #1 fastest-growing cybersecurity company on the Deloitte Fast 500 and Inc. lists, changing the game in cybersecurity.Sitting at the intersection of AI and cyber, Horizon3.ai is effectively the world’s best AI hacker. With experience from safe production runs, it helps companies focus on what actually matters: their proven, exploitable weaknesses — not generic, hypothetical vulnerability lists.Instead of working through an endless queue, teams get a short, actionable list of weaknesses that are exploitable in their unique environment so they know exactly where to act.Here’s how it works:HACK – Horizon3.ai safely “hacks” your environment like an attacker would, across external, internal, infrastructure, identity, and web apps.FIND & EXPLOIT – It finds the weaknesses that are truly exploitable, chains them into real attack paths, and shows you how attackers would get in and move laterally.FIX – It shows your teams which issues matter most and how to fix them.VERIFY – With one click, you can re-test to verify that the fix actually closed the hole.This continuous, virtuous cycle — HACK → FIX → VERIFY → REPEAT — makes companies safer, faster, and gives CISOs a clear way to prove progress and ROI.That’s how we change the game.
