With over 20 years of IT experience, I have held leadership roles in Application Development, Infrastructure, Compliance, Security and Privacy.
With an education in business administration and computer information systems, I hold a number of security certifications, including EC Council’s Certified CISO, as well as CISSP-ISSMP and CCSP from (ISC)2. I have done exam development for the CCSP, ISSMP, and Certified CISO exams, and just finished the year as a member of the Certified CISO Core Body of Knowledge Committee for EC-Council.
I strive to be an active member of the community and have given presentations for Evanta and SecureWorld Philadelphia.
I enjoy playing video games with my friends and family when I am not working. While I am not active currently, I spent much of my life studying fencing, modern epee in high school and college, La Verdadera Destreza, and Niten Ichi Ryu in my adult life. I am also something of a Star Wars addict, with a large collection of lightsaber and helmet replicas and a couple studio scale models.
