Security Engineer III
I work with customers and partners to provide first class OT security solution delivery experiences and sustainable OT incident response programs.
Whether rolling out large or small scale OT infrastructure monitoring solutions, providing certification training, or helping to design and refine OT cybersecurity incident response plans, I combine my leadership experience working in automation/OT for large scale oil & gas as well as chemical manufacturing with my time spent working as an OT/ICS security consultant to global organizations for a large Managed Security Service Provider (MSSP).
Through my experience, I have developed a wholistic view of OT security that considers factors and perspectives from the board room all the way to the factory floor. As a result, I have found myself regularly serving as a sort of translator between executive leadership, management, IT and automation/OT.
At Nozomi Networks, I enjoy building friendships as I share experience and work hard to create value for all of my customers on a world-class OT security platform.

About
My objective is singular and is always the same--in business or in life in general: to find the most effective and efficient solutions to all problems. All other endeavors that I undertake are therefore a result of that singular objective. I am a problem solver by nature.
My motto: “Following a cyber-incident, an organization’s reputation will be shaped more by its capability to respond quickly and effectively than anything else.”
