Speaker and Podcast Host
Protecting digital assets through innovative security solutions
I am a seasoned speaker who has appeared at conferences, webinars, and private events. Currently building an online community and creating a podcast series, I draw on expertise from more than 15 years of direct security experience and over 35 years of experience leading teams in programming and software, solutions, and security architecture.
For three years, I built and led an entire application security program that includes the implementation of mature AppSec programs, including oversight of security processes and procedures, SAST, DAST, CSA/OSA, compliance, training, developer communication, code reviews, application inventory gathering, and risk analysis.
As the host of the popular podcast "Secrets of AppSec Champions," I interview industry leaders and shares valuable insights on the latest trends and best practices in application security.
With a strong background in security architecture, penetration testing, and secure code review, I am passionate about educating developers and security professionals on building secure applications from the ground up.
Implementing secure development practices and conducting thorough security assessments to identify and mitigate vulnerabilities.
Training development teams on secure coding practices and implementing security controls throughout the SDLC.
Conducting comprehensive penetration tests to identify security weaknesses before they can be exploited by malicious actors.
Designing robust security architectures that protect critical assets while enabling business objectives.
Securing cloud environments and implementing best practices for cloud-native applications.
Developing and delivering comprehensive security training programs for developers, architects, and security professionals.
