Cyera: Why I’m All In on Protecting Data and Shaping the Future of AI

This isn’t just a career move. It’s a calling to help humanity harness AI for good.

I’m stepping into a new mission-driven era: to ensure that AI happens with us, not to us. My purpose now is to help humanity harness AI as a force for good: one that protects what matters most and empowers who matters most.

That’s where Cyera comes in.

Protecting what matters most in this age of AI begins with safeguarding our most valuable asset: our data, where I began my career 26 years ago. Data is the bloodstream of our economy, our communities, and our ideas. But with great potential comes great responsibility,  the digital surface expands at an unprecedented rate, so do the risks. World-class cybersecurity is no longer optional; it’s essential.

Equally, it means uplifting our workforce - not replacing it- by designing AI systems that elevate human potential rather than diminish it. Through a lens of healthy AI, my work as Cyera’s Chief Strategy Officer for Data and AI will focus on fortifying digital trust and cultivating a new paradigm of human-machine collaboration, where technology scales our empathy, intelligence, and creativity.

This is more than a career move. It’s a calling to help steer AI toward a future we can all believe in so that we protect our most valuable assets: Data and Human Capital.

• Our Workforce: leveraging AI to amplify our strengths, not replace them.
  
  
• Our Data: securing the very thing that defines us and identifies us, building intelligent systems that defend against evolving threats without sacrificing trust, transparency, or humanity.

That’s why joining Cyera was an easy choice.

Cyera is redefining how enterprises understand and protect their most critical data, with a philosophy that leads with both heart and mind.

They aren’t just building faster security tools; they’re building smarter ways for companies to truly know and protect what matters most.

At Cyera, this isn’t just about innovation. It’s about creating a world where innovation and protection go hand in hand. Where technology strengthens and does not erode the bonds between people, ideas, and progress.

I’m excited to help shape a future where we rise to meet this incredible moment, with boldness, clarity, and care, while navigate this inflection point with wisdom, integrity, and care, ensuring that the explosion of AI, cloud, and digital transformation serves us, not controls us.

Because the future won’t wait.  And it deserves our very best.
