Solving the most important security and privacy challenges for tech startups

Spain

Results-driven security leader with 18 years of information security experience, including 6 years in my current leadership role at a fully remote, high-growth, pre-IPO SaaS company.

As Zipline’s first security hire, I built scalable security programs that accelerated annual recurring revenue from $3 million to $30 million, securing multi-year contracts with Fortune 500 companies and leading global brands, including Nike, Lego, Sephora, and Lululemon.

Recognized by C-level executives for my balanced, business-first approach, I prioritize automation to enhance visibility and efficiency, taking full ownership of security without excessive spending on consultants or vendors. Skilled in communicating complex topics to diverse audiences, I leverage security as a competitive advantage to drive revenue growth and company valuation.

Led SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, GDPR and CCPA compliance implementation from zero and provided ongoing governance and oversight.

Talked with enterprise clients during the sales process to address complex security inquiries. Accelerated high-value client deals by effectively addressing security concerns and building trust, leading to faster contract signings and long-term partnerships.

Security automation expert. Always looking to streamline and automate security tasks with tools such as Vanta, Zapier, repeatable processes, and clear documentation.
