What I'm looking for
I lead Supply-Chain Risk Management and Customer Assurance at Cargill, following executive vendor risk leadership at Morgan Stanley and nearly six years directing cyber and information security risk at Equifax.

I’ve also led third-party information security risk at The Home Depot, information security risk and governance at Aflac, and security risk management programs at SunTrust.
I bring an operational foundation from supervising a Network Management Center at USAN and serving in technical control, cryptology, and network administration roles in the United States Air Force.
