About Me

I'm a hands-on defender turned product leader with over a decade of experience in cybersecurity. My journey started in the US Army, leading to critical roles in a DoD Cyber Security Services Provider (CSSP), where I honed my skills in detection engineering and threat hunting.

In 2020, I co-founded Interpres Security, an exposure management platform recognized by Gartner. We successfully navigated the startup journey from 0 to 1, culminating in an acquisition by CyberProof in 2024. Currently, as Head of Product Innovation at CyberProof, I continue to drive solutions that help organizations prioritize defenses against real-world threats.

My passion lies in translating complex security challenges into elegant, effective products. I'm particularly interested in startup advisory and helping PE/VC firms assess security technology investments.
