About Sasha Woods

I am a creative problem solver, constantly thinking outside of the box and executing new ideas in ambiguous, rapidly shifting environments. Whether it is developing and running a growing $35M Infrastructure Security practice, leading over 500 penetration tests to successful completion, helping some of the world’s largest companies run their AppSec programs, or managing a global team of technical subject matters experts, I base my decisions on analytical findings and an empathetic understanding of all stakeholders’ objectives. I am obsessed with the customer experience, and thrive in an environment where I can liaise between internal and external partners, creating unity to achieve a common goal. I am a leader who empowers my team to deliver their best work, nurturing their skills and passions in an inclusive and empathetic no-blame environment.
