TL;DR: I’ve spent more than two decades in cybersecurity, leading teams, building companies, and founding Risk Based Security, which was acquired by Flashpoint. I run RVAsec, invest, advise, and serve on boards. Now I’m building Dead Meat Society (DMS).

I saw firsthand how hard cybersecurity can be on people’s mental health. But this isn’t just a cyber problem, the world is becoming more isolated. DMS is my next mission: bringing people together, fighting loneliness, and feeding our communities.
