I specialize in fixing cybersecurity and compliance programs that look good on paper, but won’t hold up under real-world scrutiny. I don’t rebuild programs. I fix what’s already there and make it “assessable.” With over a decade of experience across defense, manufacturing, and federal environments, I’ve worked as a Business Information Security Officer and trusted advisor in high-stakes organizations where failure isn’t an option. My focus isn’t on starting from scratch, it’s on stabilizing what already exists, identifying where things break down, and making programs defensible, assessable, and operational. I’ve led efforts to: 1. Restructure GRC implementations when tooling and data were unreliable 2. Build assessment-ready frameworks aligned to NIST SP 800-171A / 800-53A 3. Strengthen CMMC readiness without forcing costly rebuilds 4. Align policies, procedures, and evidence into something that actually works under audit conditions My approach is practical and execution-driven. I don’t deal in theory; I work inside real environments with constraints, competing priorities, and imperfect systems. If your organization is dealing with: 1. CMMC or NIST 800-171 uncertainty 2. A GRC program that isn’t delivering value 3. Documentation that doesn’t align with reality 4. Concerns about passing an assessment I can help you identify the gaps and stabilize your program, without unnecessary complexity or disruption.
