Virginia, United States

Founding member of the business function - built and scaled Ampcus Cyber's entire commercial organization from zero, now a 63-person team spanning sales (32), lead generation (20), marketing (8), and collections (3). Grew revenue from $2M (2024) to $4M (2025) to a projected $8M (2026) - a sustained 100% year-over-year doubling across three consecutive years, achieved from a standing start. Acquired 500+ enterprise customers in three years, building the client base from the ground up across PCI DSS, ISO 27001, SOC 1/2/3, NIST, and GDPR compliance service lines. Closed a single enterprise account worth $1.2M USD in 2026 - the largest deal in company history to date. Established go-to-market presence across six regions - APAC, Middle East, Africa, Europe, US, and Canada - as the first and only leader responsible for international expansion. Bring a rare hybrid: deep cybersecurity domain fluency (PCI DSS, ISO 27001, SOC, NIST, GDPR) combined with SaaS go-to-market discipline from prior Netcore Cloud leadership - closing deals that pure-compliance or pure-SaaS leaders typically can't.

Chief Business Officer @ Ampcus Cyber Inc | Cybersecurity

About

Cybersecurity commercial executive who has doubled revenue three years running - from $2M (2024) to $4M (2025), tracking to $8M in 2026 - while leading the entire business function at Ampcus Cyber: a 63-person organization spanning sales, lead generation, marketing, and collections. As Chief Business Officer, I own go-to-market strategy across APAC, the Middle East, Africa, Europe, the US, and Canada, translating dense compliance frameworks - PCI DSS, ISO 27001, SOC 1/2/3, NIST, GDPR - into revenue. In the last three years, this has produced 500+ new customers and, in 2026, a single enterprise account worth $1.2M. What I bring that most cybersecurity commercial leaders don't: genuine subject-matter depth across the full cyber services portfolio, paired with SaaS go-to-market discipline carried over from my tenure leading country operations at Netcore Cloud. That combination - technical credibility with CISOs, commercial fluency with CFOs and boards - is what lets me close deals other GRC-only leaders can't. Prior to Ampcus, I built commercial operations from the ground up across seven markets — including country leadership at Netcore Cloud and APAC business development at Network Intelligence and SISA Information Security.
