AI Security Architect

Securing What AI Agents Build. Advising Fortune 500 leaders at the frontier of AI-native development and enterprise security.

About

Engineering at the edge of AI and security

The way software gets built has fundamentally changed. AI-native development, agentic workflows, and model integrated architectures have outpaced the security built to govern them. I work at that gap.

As Principal/Staff Solutions Engineer at Snyk, I advise Fortune 500 engineering and security leaders on securing the full AI development lifecycle — from code generation and open-source dependencies through agentic orchestration, MCP integrations, and live production systems.

With 20+ years building and leading technical go-to-market motions at disruptive enterprise technology companies, I bring a practitioner's depth to executive-level conversations. I help organizations build security programs that scale with how their teams actually work.

Currently specializing in Snyk Evo, the industry's first Agentic Security Orchestrator, and the emerging discipline of securing AI-native software at enterprise scale.
