A little bit about me - I help coach cybersecurity leaders looking to level up their career in cybersecurity when they feel like they have stalled and are not achieving results. I help them achieve that by highlighting their passions, transferable skills, and the value they bring to the particular role they're aiming to get. Outside of being a security practitioner focused on helping businesses tackle their cybersecurity risks while minimizing friction resulting in increased resiliency and helping to secure people and processes with a solid understanding of the technology involved, I also focus on helping my network through my cybersecurity leadership development coaching business [CPF-coaching.com](https://cpf-coaching.com/) that focuses on helping leaders who are leveling up in their careers. I help them focus on their target areas and grow. Through this channel, I help veterans with their transitions and others via non-profits like Whole Cyber Human Initiative (https://www.wholecyberhumaninitiative.org/), Boots2Books (https://boots2books.com/), and others. I give back by producing a podcast focused on helping people who are “Breaking into Cybersecurity” by sharing the stories of those who have done it in the past 5 years to inspire those looking to do it now. I have 15+ years as an experienced Information Security Manager, Adjunct Professor, and Cybersecurity Strategist with a passion for customer service, process improvement, and information security. Managed teams of over 30+ people across multiple locations. 10+ years of leading, coaching, and mentoring people.
