Corporate Compliance Expert
I’m a lifesciences compliance strategist with a passion for building real-world, right-sized programs in fast-moving environments. With deep experience in pharma and medtech, I specialize in translating regulatory complexity into practical, actionable frameworks. I’ve spent 7+ years navigating the gray areas of compliance—from training physicians on industry expectations to building startup programs from the ground up. I believe compliance should be ethical, functional, and human-centered—and that culture is built through clarity, storytelling, and respect, not fear. Outside of policy and audits, I speak regularly on startup compliance and love turning “boring” topics into memorable moments. I'm here to connect, create, and contribute.

PhD, CEO at All Clinical Trials
I’m an entrepreneur working at the intersection of AI, product execution, and healthcare access. Over the last decade I’ve built and led teams that turn new technology into practical tools for real businesses. I co-founded BotsCrew in 2016, grew it into a global AI services company, and later joined the CourtAvenue collective, where we help large enterprises adopt generative AI with speed and precision. I also founded AllClinicalTrials.com and Curify, two platforms focused on making it easier for patients to find and enroll in legitimate clinical trials. That work started from a personal experience trying to find treatment options for a family member, and it pushed me toward building products that remove friction from complex systems. My background is in applied mathematics and AI, but most of my learning came from building things fast, talking to customers, and fixing what didn’t work. I’m especially interested in how generative AI will reshape operations, customer experience, and decision-making in large organizations. I try to share what I learn - both the wins and the mistakes - so others can move faster.

Founder & CISO at IOmergent
My path to security leadership came through offensive security testing, software engineering, and product management. I've written code, designed and built security products, created and sold managed security services, and served as both GM and CISO for organizations ranging from early-stage startups to multi-billion-dollar enterprises. That background shapes how I approach security: I understand the trade-offs engineering teams face, I know what's actually feasible to implement and operate, and I prioritize controls that reduce real risk over ones that just satisfy auditors. I stay hands-on with cloud architecture, application security, AI, and emerging threats. At IOmergent, my co-founder Brett Wilson and I work with growing companies that need real security leadership but aren't ready for a full-time CISO. We provide fractional CISO (vCISO) services, managed cloud security, and practical assessments that tell you where you actually stand. Our focus is on building security into engineering culture and operations, as well as with executive teams. We work extensively with SaaS companies, healthcare and fintech organizations, and AI startups navigating their first enterprise customers, dealing with incidents or near misses, or trying to figure out what "good enough" security actually looks like for their stage. If you're a founder or technical leader looking to mature your security posture, preparing for your first compliance audit, or navigating an incident and need experienced support, I'm always happy to connect. And if you just want to talk through a security challenge with someone who's been there, reach out.
