About
// the story behind the terminal
I'm a senior cybersecurity executive with 20+ years leading global security engineering, compliance programs, and technology operations. Currently serving as Acting CISO directing security engineering, product security, cyber monitoring, GRC, and corporate IT for a multinational technology company operating across healthcare AI, SaaS, and connected-device markets.
I'm an EY alumnus who started as a Security Engineer at Sumitomo Corporation in Japan, then worked across the Middle East, and eventually the US. Along the way, I built and scaled a 20+ person global security organization spanning NA, EU, and APAC.
In 2018, I founded Beyond Cloud — a blockchain-integrated SaaS platform. It taught me everything about building products. Now I'm channeling that into SecureHive, an enterprise security operations platform built for CISOs. I'm also completing my MBA at James Madison University, blending security leadership with business strategy.
