I've been fortunate to work alongside some highly experienced and capable individuals over the 25+ years I've been in this industry. Resiliency (both corporate and personal) is a major part of who I am; both experiencing the physical challenges of competing in dozens of multi-sport and long distance endurance races, as well as dealing with the response to disasters at work. I've seen the world evolve and so too the risk landscape, and for nearly three decades, I've been designing plans and strategies to combat these for hundreds of organisations.
My work has seen me travel the world (in some cases, with my family) and work alongside some incredible businesses - both large and small. The energy I get from meeting and standing infront of a leadership team or board to discuss how we're going to protect their people and assets is a thrill, a thrill I have not stopped seeking after so many years.
To have an opportunity to join the Fixinc ecosystem and work alongside my son, building solutions, technology, and programs has been my greatest achievement so far. Alongside this, I have been the Head of Technology for Sention, a corporate threat intelligence tool.
As we grow the Fixinc offering, I'm excited to see what the Advisory, Directory, and Consulting practice can do for organisations around the world.
