I was a paratrooper in the 82nd Airborne. Since then: cyber threat intelligence at Recorded Future, geopolitical strategy at Boeing, a veteran-led advisory firm I co-founded and built across New York, London, Kyiv, and Taipei, and the New York National Security Forum, which I co-founded too. Now I’m a doctoral researcher at King’s College London, writing Innovation Under Fire.
