About

Director of EMEA Client Relationships.

As cyber is a vocation and passion of mine, raising awareness and helping clients identify and minimise cyber risks to their business, whilst also being able to reduce operating costs, brings me a lot of joy.

As a former CISO, I know first hand the pressure to maximise a security budget in reducing as much cyber risk as possible with limited time, people and money. Doing more with less, that is what makes us different in SRA. Being vendor agnostic is such a powerful feeling in any conversation that ensures the client knows the right choices are being made for the right reasons and not based on someone making sales commissions!

Formerly, Product Director & Enterprise Sales Lead at TitanHQ, I leveraged my 8+ years of experience as a SaaS cybersecurity founder and CEO, to drive the growth and innovation of SafeTitan, a leading solution for phishing simulation and cyber knowledge assessment.

I was responsible for enterprise account ownership, product sales enablement, product management, public speaking, brand ambassadorship, and thought leadership within the TitanHQ organization and the cybersecurity industry at large.

Before joining TitanHQ, I founded and led Cyber Risk Aware, a SaaS ISV that achieved product market fit, generated multi-million dollar ARR, raised public and private investment, and created and managed a global channel across five continents. I also have extensive experience as an in-house and external consultant CISO, a cyber insurance underwriting advisor, and an investor in Human Firewall Ltd, a company that provided engaging and interactive cyber security awareness training content. I am motivated by the mission of helping companies assess and reduce the level of cyber risk in their business, and empowering employees to become the best line of defense against cyber threats.
