Coaching for Professionals & Executives.

Guidance that cuts through noise and gets to what matters.

Why Coaching?

Even experienced professionals hit crossroads—career plateaus, team challenges, new roles, or high-stakes decisions. Whether you're leading security, building a tech team, or navigating complex dynamics, having someone to think with can make all the difference.

This isn’t textbook advice. It’s coaching built on real-world experience in security leadership, people management, and strategic execution.

Who I Work With

  • Security managers stepping into leadership roles
  • IT professionals transitioning toward cybersecurity
  • CISOs seeking outside perspective
  • CTOs and execs needing security fluency
  • Founders and leaders who want to ask the “dumb questions” safely

What We Work On

Leadership Development

From one-on-one management to org-wide influence—I help you build your leadership voice and strategy.

Security Program Tuning

Sometimes your gut says something’s off. I’ll help assess structure, processes, or communication gaps and co-create solutions.

Communication Coaching

Security is often misunderstood. Learn how to talk about risk, posture, and strategy to peers, execs, and boards—clearly and with impact.

Career Navigation

What to Expect

  • Flexibility. Book single sessions, ad-hoc support, or recurring check-ins.
  • Practicality. My job isn’t to impress—it’s to help you move forward.

Sample Use Cases

  • Preparing for a CISO or Director interview
  • Rebuilding confidence after a rough incident
