With a background in military service and a deep understanding of industry regulations, I bring a unique perspective to the IT and cybersecurity landscape. My experience includes several industry regulations and standards including HIPAA, HITECH, HITRUST, CMMC, CJIS, ISO 27001, FERPA, FIPA, GDPR, NIST 800-171, NIST 800-53, SOX, NY DFS, and PCI. My progressive career reflects increasing responsibility in leadership roles with a proven ability to build, lead, and mentor high-performing teams. My dedication extends beyond my work, as evidenced by my numerous certifications and ongoing commitment to learning. I enjoy sharing my knowledge, whether it's through speaking at events or on my podcast, writing for industry publications, or teaching courses.
