Securing the enterprise frontier.

Founder & CEO

I'm a cybersecurity leader driven by the belief that transformative security must be both deeply technical and strategically aligned with business outcomes. As Founder and CEO of Amastra, I lead a boutique Google Cloud Security integrator built to deliver elite, specialized expertise with the agility that today's enterprises demand.

Amastra was founded to reimagine the traditional consulting model — guiding organizations through complex security transformations, from rapid proof-of-concepts to large-scale SIEM migrations across the full Google Unified Security ecosystem. Our team has been hands-on with the Google Security stack since its inception as Chronicle, navigating its evolution through the acquisitions of Siemplify, Mandiant, and VirusTotal.

Before founding Amastra, I honed my craft across senior leadership and engineering roles at Deloitte, Accenture, and Target — building the foundation that now drives our mission: giving good the advantage. Beyond the keyboard, you'll find me carving powder at Beaver Creek or chasing fresh lines across the Colorado Rockies.
