I'm a Field CISO and AI Security Executive at Google Cloud, advising CISOs and boards on AI governance, SecOps transformation, and sovereign AI strategy. Previously at Palo Alto Networks as Business Value Director, and Accenture and KPMG as a strategy consultant.

My background spans deep engineering, management consulting, and enterprise security GTM: MS Electrical Engineering, University of Michigan (research in secure vehicular communications) · MBA, University of Chicago Booth (Dean's Honor List) · 9 years at Ericsson architecting hybrid cloud and IoT security infrastructure.

In 2026 I moved from advising on AI to building with it: working systems for the problems my customers actually face — agentic workflow automation under enterprise constraints, retrieval for regulated environments, end-to-end fine-tuning infrastructure, and AI-native security for disconnected networks. I speak at Billington CyberSecurity, GovExec, and ATARC, and write on what it takes to build genuinely AI-native security programs.
