Intro

I'm an IT and security leader with 15+ years building and securing technology programs, from Amazon to Series A health-tech startups.

My focus is the intersection of identity and access management, endpoint security, and compliance: the SOC2, ISO 27001, and HIPAA frameworks regulated companies depend on. My core strength is translating security risk into prioritized programs a growing company can actually ship. Take a look at my work.

Underneath all of it, I'm a lifelong computer nerd and a card-carrying Apple expert (ACMT and ACSP), as comfortable scripting in a terminal as I am in a leadership conversation. The role I do best asks for both.

About

I live just outside of Boise, Idaho. I am a dad to two wonderful kids and have been married to the love of my life since 2009. Between the three of them, most of my free time stays pretty occupied.

But as time is available, I enjoy collecting & listening to records (mostly emo and pop punk from the 2000’s), 3D printing, and playing board games. Recent favorites have been Skyrise, Etherstone, Speakeasy, Rising Sun, and The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring - Trick-Taking Game.

I also love attending Stonehill Church and serve on the worship team there playing various guitars or doing audio engineering.
