What's My Why?
I enjoy working with students and mentoring people interested in a career in the intelligence community or security. I spent nearly 20 years in the intelligence community and now work in corporate security. I enjoy the small classes and chance to engage with students so I can help driven students have a career in the intelligence community or security also.
Professional Experience
I am the director of the threat management and intelligence group in the corporate security department of a Connecticut-based energy company. The team is responsible for providing threat and risk intelligence and analysis to the physical, cyber, third party and insider risk programs. I'm also a high school lacrosse coach.
From 2002 to 2021, I worked in the FBI, National Intelligence Council, National Counterterrorism Center and CIA, where I analyzed South and Central Asia-based terrorist groups and their threat to the U.S., and later in my career managed a group responsible for threat analysis and technologically advanced analytic processes.
