firm: PA Consulting

headline: Technology from Insight to Market Impact

about:
I bring extensive experience in developing and commercializing a wide range of products, with a strong focus on medical devices and additional work in food ingredients, commercial instruments, and services. Throughout my career, I’ve worked across diverse environments—from large corporations to startups and small companies—contributing at every stage of the product lifecycle.

My background spans from initial concept development through to market launch and ongoing product evolution. I’ve led and contributed to projects that challenged conventional thinking—often hearing “this isn’t possible” from early users—only to see those products become some of the most rewarding and impactful.

With hands-on experience in both the technical and strategic aspects of product development, I understand the complexities and demands of bringing innovative solutions to market. I’m passionate about partnering with innovators to help them achieve their goals, solve tough challenges, and deliver value, leveraging my deep expertise in engineering, product management, and lifecycle strategy.

about:
Most organizations don't struggle with strategy.

They struggle with execution.

For more than 15 years, I've helped organizations bridge the gap between vision and results by building the operating models, governance structures, delivery practices, and leadership alignment needed to execute consistently.

As a Senior Strategy & Transformation Consultant and employee-owner at SEI, I partner with executives and leadership teams to improve how organizations plan, prioritize, communicate, and deliver complex initiatives.

My experience spans enterprise transformation, software delivery, PMO design, governance, security transformation, organizational change, and executive communications across Fortune 500 companies.

Outside of consulting, I actively operate and invest in businesses across real estate, hospitality, logistics, and business services.

This operator mindset shapes how I approach consulting work. My focus is always on practical solutions that leaders can implement, sustain, and measure.

I believe successful organizations win by creating clarity, accountability, and disciplined execution.

Areas of Focus:

• Strategy Execution & Transformation
 • PMO / PgMO Design & Governance
 • Software Delivery & Capacity Planning
 • Organizational Change Management
 • Executive Communications
 • Security Transformation
 • AI-Enabled Operating Models
 • Business Acquisitions & Operational Improvement
 • Real Estate & Business Operations

Let's connect if you're building, scaling, transforming, or acquiring.

sourced_title: Practice Director - Security, Privacy and Compliance

firm: Unify Consulting

headline: Practice Director & Sales Leader | Building Teams & Partnerships That Navigate Complexity & Drive Lasting Change | Cybersecurity, AI & Enterprise Solutions

about:
Most organizations struggle not because they lack a good product, but because they hit a "complexity ceiling." Whether it’s a fragmented partner ecosystem or a sales team stalled by organizational resistance, I specialize in breaking through those ceilings to drive sustainable, double-digit growth.

As a Practice Director at the intersection of Cybersecurity, AI, and Enterprise Sales, I don't just manage portfolios—I architect the engines that power them.

Why partners and recruiters work with me:

1. I build "Force Multiplier" Alliances

The So What: I don't just sign partners; I build ecosystems. I’ve scaled global alliances to $178M with 40% YoY growth by aligning incentives so that our success is inevitable, not accidental.

2. I Transform Talent into Performance

The So What: High turnover is a profit killer. I’ve promoted 60% of my teams within two years because I hire for trajectory and lead with radical clarity. My teams don’t just hit quotas; they stay and grow.

3. I Navigate Friction to Deliver Change

The So What: Large-scale transformations (like my current 5,000-app cybersecurity initiative) usually fail due to "human" complexity, not technical limits. I excel at aligning competing stakeholder interests to ensure "change" actually sticks.

Core Impact Metrics:

Scale: Managed $170M+ portfolios with 10+ years of consecutive double-digit growth.

Execution: 106% / 101% / 125% quota attainment; closed deals up to $100M.

Growth: Architected GTM programs adopted globally; added 750+ new logos.

Technical Domain Depth: Cybersecurity (GRC, IAM, Zero Trust, DevSecOps) | AI/ML Security & Privacy | Data Governance | Channel & Alliance Strategy | Change Management.
