Finalist for 𝗘𝘅𝗲𝗰𝘂𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗬𝗲𝗮r in the 2025 San Diego Business Journal Cybersecurity Stewardship Awards! To me, stewardship is about how consistently we sustain trust. Systems (& relationships) break when we stop maintaining them. That belief shapes how I lead, how I teach, and how I show up.

Culture isn’t what you say. It’s what you tolerate and do when the right call hurts.

Work hard. Tell the truth. Change your mind. Raise the bar. Do less, better. Make the hard calls.

You don’t need a perfect office to learn.
