Fractional CISO & Strategic Advisor
With over 13 years of experience at the high-stakes intersection of cybersecurity and business strategy, I serve as a strategic thought partner to B2B scaleups. Having built security programs for Forbes Cloud 100 FinTech, Banking, Finance, and FMCG leaders and reviewed over 150+ B2B security programs, I translate technical complexity into business resilience and investor trust.
Enabled €150M+ in acquisitions by ensuring security programs exceed the most rigorous international due diligence. I prepare founders for the "security hurdle" in Tier-1 exits.
Identified and recovered €35M in savings through intelligent tool consolidation and risk-aligned roadmaps, proving that robust security can increase, not drain, your bottom line.
Providing elite, cross-border security oversight for high-growth technology firms scaling across EMEA and North America, bridging the gap between European regulation (NIS2) and US market expectations (SOC 2).
Maintained a 100% first-time pass rate on ISO 27001 and SOC 2 audits. I deliver audit-ready frameworks that satisfy global enterprise procurement without the traditional "enterprise bloat."
For high-growth B2B companies, security is no longer a technical checkbox, it is a fundamental driver of enterprise value.
We don't just "do" security; we integrate it into your business strategy to unlock new markets and protect your enterprise value.
A structured, 4-stage executive engagement designed to align your security posture with your business growth milestones and investor expectations.
