Advisory & Speaking

Two decades as a CISO at AIG, Athene, and Texas Capital Bank taught me what boards, executives, and conference audiences actually need to hear: not vendor pitches, not fearmongering, but clear-eyed analysis of what the risk landscape looks like and what to do about it. I bring the same signal-over-noise approach from Global Race Condition to private engagements.

Keynote Speaking & Panel Moderation

65+ international keynotes, panels, and webinars across the Americas, Europe, and Asia. I speak on the topics where cybersecurity intersects with business strategy, emerging technology, and geopolitics. I also moderate executive panels and host fireside chats that go beyond surface-level discussion.

Board & Executive Advisory

NACD.DC certified with advisory and corporate board experience. I've sat on boards and I've briefed them as a CISO. Formal board advisory seats, risk posture assessments, and decision support for the moments that matter: vendor selection, post-incident pivots, acquisition diligence.

Strategic Advisory

Fractional CISO guidance, security program assessments, M&A cybersecurity due diligence, and regulatory readiness. I've built security programs from the ground up at companies ranging from startups to $29B-revenue global enterprises, taken a global security program from bottom-5% to top-1% benchmarking, and led programs through IPOs, mergers, and Federal Reserve remediation. If you're navigating a complex security challenge, I've probably seen a version of it before.

Global Race Condition for Your Organization

Private, tailored versions of the intelligence analysis behind the public brief. The same multi-domain synthesis across geopolitics, cyber, AI, quantum, and macro finance, built for your leadership team's risk landscape, industry, and strategic priorities, with the analysis that doesn't make it into the public brief. Available as a single executive briefing or an annual program of four quarterly briefings timed to your board calendar.
