As CISO at Avanade, I’m responsible for overseeing information security, client data protection, incident management, asset protection, and business continuity initiatives. Reflecting Avanade’s dedication to data security, my team and I work closely with clients to ensure that we meet all information security requirements.

I also lead Avanade's client account for Accenture, one of our largest North American accounts. Before stepping into the CISO role, I served as CIO, where I grew Avanade’s security strategy in alignment with the increasingly critical role security plays in our clients' success. Earlier in my career here, I held the position of Vice President of Infrastructure Services and Global Operations, accountable for Avanade’s enterprise infrastructure, including security, end-user enablement, collaboration, hosting, and network services worldwide.

My career began at Accenture, where I spent 14 years, most recently as Director of Unified Communications and Collaboration Services. Academically, I hold a degree in information decision science from the University of Illinois, along with advanced leadership certifications from both the Foster School of Business, University of Washington, and the Haas School of Business, University of California, Berkeley.
