My career has moved across managed services, global security leadership, regulated industries, executive advisory work, and public-sector and defense environments. That range has shaped how I lead: I look beyond the immediate technical issue to understand the operating model, business obligation, and people who will carry the work forward.
Today, I serve as Executive Director of Service Delivery and a Board Member at Newmind Group. I lead multi-tier service delivery operations and direct AI research and development focused on practical workflow and automation solutions.
Leadership scope
- Building and leading managed IT service-delivery and security organizations.
- Leading global security teams across North America and Europe.
- Advising executives and clients on security strategy, operational improvement, and emerging technology.
- Guiding organizations through security, risk, and compliance obligations across regulated industries.
- Managing technology investments, vendor risk, incident response, workforce development, and cross-functional change.
Selected leadership experience
Before my current role, I led an independent executive-level security consulting practice and served in embedded leadership and advisory roles across technology, manufacturing, healthcare, and defense.
Earlier in my career, I spent two decades in government, defense, and public-sector security engagements. That foundation included enterprise security architecture, information assurance, vulnerability management, incident response, regulatory programs, and high-availability infrastructure.
Board and community leadership
I serve on the Board of Directors of Newmind Group and as Corporate Outreach Committee Chair for the MSU Calhoun County Spartans Alumni Club.

Beyond the work
Endurance, focus, and a life in motion.
Outside of work, I am an avid cyclist and stay active year-round. The focus, discipline, and endurance that draw me to cycling also shape how I approach sustained leadership challenges.
