I’m a cybersecurity executive with over 30 years of experience helping organizations navigate the intersection of trust, innovation, and resilience. As Customer Security Officer for Microsoft’s U.S. Health & Life Sciences business, I advise C-level leaders on secure cloud adoption, regulatory compliance, and AI governance—especially in high-stakes, regulated environments. My journey began in medicine and evolved through entrepreneurship, product development, and CISO roles at global firms like Covidien and Sensata. Along the way, I’ve built security programs from the ground up, contributed to FDA guidance on connected medical devices, and helped shape Microsoft’s customer-facing security strategy. What drives me is the human side of security: building trust, enabling transformation, and protecting what matters most. Whether I’m speaking at DEFCON’s Biohacking Village, mentoring future security leaders, or collaborating with partners on AI risk frameworks, I bring a pragmatic, people-first approach to every conversation. Let’s connect if you’re passionate about advancing security in healthcare, scaling trust in AI, or just want to swap stories from the front lines of cyber.
