WHAT I DO: I work to solve today’s and tomorrow’s problems, many of which not we have not identified yet. My single greatest skill: helping you see what you don’t see coming. Once we achieve that – together – through relationship building and challenging questions, we work to create solutions that protect and strengthen what matters most to you. When we achieve that, I call it success.

WHERE I FOCUS MY EFFORTS: I have a multidisciplinary background that allows me take on complex problems. I enjoy these challenges most. My current professional efforts focus on human factor vulnerabilities related to cybersecurity, information security, and data security by separating the network and information risk areas. Some of the issues I tackle include: business continuity, resilience strategies, social engineering, insider threats, psychological warfare, data manipulation and integrity, and information dominance.

ABOUT ME: I work as a consultant and educator. My project areas include: business development, risk/crisis management, and cultural relations. For over 15 years I have been helping people with their strategic, operational, and training needs.

VOLUNTEER EFFORTS: Women’s rights, military and veteran affairs, youth leadership, and education. I am the elected Chair of the NGO Committee on Education, Learning and Literacy (a NGO Substantive Committee member of CoNGO), and an official Delegate of the United Nations, representing a NGO in Special Consultative Status with ECOSOC at the NGO Committee for the Status of Women (New York).

LASTLY (AND MOST IMPORTANTLY): Thank you to all that have helped me along the way...couldn't be where I am without you.
