I offer one-to-one coaching and mentoring to a select group of cybersecurity professionals and startup founders who are serious about accelerating their careers or launching meaningful ventures in this space. This is deeply personal work - not structured consulting or project delivery - focused on helping you navigate your unique path with clarity, confidence, and purpose.

Drawing from my own journey - founding and exiting Dragonfly Technologies, co-founding multiple ventures, serving on the AISA Board through the end of 2027, and advising at board level - I bring real-world perspective to the challenges you face: breaking into or advancing in cybersecurity, transitioning roles, building resilience under pressure, or turning ideas into viable startups in a high-stakes field.

My mentoring is conversational, supportive, and tailored: we explore your goals, address self-doubt, map out practical steps (certs, networking, mindset shifts), and celebrate progress. It's about empowering you to build a career or venture that aligns with your values, while staying grounded in the realities of the industry.

Typical areas we cover include:

• Career progression in cybersecurity - from entry-level to leadership roles

• Transitioning into or within the field (e.g., technical skills, certifications, networking)

• Startup founder guidance - validating ideas, risk management, team building, and resilience

• Personal development - purpose alignment, overcoming imposter syndrome, long-term vision

This is selective and limited - I only take on a handful of mentees at a time to ensure genuine depth and impact.

If you're committed to growth and would value candid, founder-informed guidance, let's explore if we're a fit.
