I’m a senior cybersecurity and technology executive with 15+ years of experience advising financial services and mid-market organizations on cyber risk, cloud transformation, and IT operations.I specialize in helping leadership teams understand **where risk actually lives**, how to prioritize security investments, and how to build scalable, resilient technology environments that support growth—not slow it down.Currently, I work as a Senior Security & Cyber Risk Consultant, delivering executive-level cyber risk assessments, IT operations reviews, and multi-year security roadmaps aligned to business objectives. I regularly partner with sales and executive leadership to translate technical findings into actionable strategies that drive remediation, maturity, and recurring advisory engagements.Previously, I served as the global head of IT for a private equity firm managing $52B in assets under management, where I owned IT and cybersecurity strategy, regulatory readiness, cloud architecture, vendor management, and global operations. I was a key contributor to technology risk governance, SEC compliance, and firm-wide initiatives spanning cloud migration, security modernization, and global office buildouts.In parallel, I act as a trusted vCTO advisor for organizations undergoing technology and security transformation—guiding strategy, leading complex initiatives, and supporting international expansion across the UK, APAC, and Australia.I’m most often engaged when organizations need:• Executive-level cyber risk clarity• Practical, business-aligned security roadmaps• Cloud and Microsoft 365 security strategy• Penetration testing and vulnerability prioritization• vCTO / vCISO advisory support• Technology leadership during growth, change, or expansionI value clear communication, pragmatic security, and solutions that work in the real world—not just on paper.If you’re building, securing, or scaling a business and need senior technology or cybersecurity leadership, I’m always open to a conversation.
