I work at the intersection of technical expertise, organizational power, and human judgment.
I've spent more than two decades in roles where getting the analysis right matters—and where being right is only the beginning. My career has crossed cybersecurity, privacy, corporate leadership, legal practice, and teaching. Across those settings, the recurring question has been the same: what makes expert advice consequential?
Professional experience
At Walmart, my work included cybersecurity and compliance leadership. At Gap Inc., I worked in privacy leadership. My experience also includes private law practice and teaching information privacy and data security law.
Research interests
I study persuasion and influence science, negotiation, credibility and trust, technical leadership and executive decision-making, and how AI systems and autonomous agents influence decisions.
How I work
I connect research to practical executive preparation, workshops, and advisory work for cybersecurity, privacy, GRC, and technology leaders.
