Security teams uncover critical findings every day. The challenge is ensuring leadership understands the stakes and acts decisively.
I work with security leaders to translate technical assessments into clear executive narratives that support budget alignment, policy decisions, and strategic action. From board presentations to risk committee briefings, we craft messaging that resonates across both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
Focus Areas:
Executive Briefings • Board Narratives • Risk Communication

My Approach
Security is a story. Tell it like one.
Technical excellence alone doesn’t protect organizations. The most thorough penetration test, the most comprehensive risk assessment, or the most sophisticated threat intelligence offers little value if leadership does not grasp the stakes and act accordingly.
I help security teams bridge that gap by providing cybersecurity services that translate technical realities into business language that compels action. This approach is not about simplifying the work; it’s about enhancing communication through information assurance services that create momentum in decision-making.
About
My Experience
With over a decade of experience in cybersecurity services, federal consulting, governance and risk strategy, penetration testing, and technical sales, I understand what is often lost in translation between security teams and executive leadership, and how to bridge that gap effectively.
I currently work in cybersecurity SaaS, providing information assurance services and partnering daily with security organizations navigating the challenge of communicating risk to stakeholders who control budgets but may not live in technical detail.
Basilisk Security Advisory is my boutique practice for organizations ready to transform how they communicate security, align priorities, and drive meaningful action through effective risk management consulting.
