I make security work for business, not the other way around.

Too many security professionals are quick to say 'No. That can't be done.' instead of 'Let's see how we can make this work for you, safely.' What I love about security is it can make people's lives better. Security shouldn't stop you from getting where you want to be. It should help you get there more safely!

I'm a security professional who believes security can and should be a business enabler. I created this website with the goal of making security and technology more accessible to everyone. The title of the website is TailoredSafe. It's both a play on my last name and an ode to the importance of tailored, usable security. Take a look around to learn more about what that means to me, and contact me if you'd like to chat about how I can help you.
