Forbes.jobs

Forbes.jobs unfortunately closed it doors as of December 31st, 2023.  Great idea, wrong time in the market to really grow.  I learned a lot from each of the training sessions, built great relationships with other recruiters, and was able to attend a Forbes event in NYC.  Hope to work with them again in the future if the concept comes back to life when the market shifts.

Senior Sales Representive

My faith in Jesus Christ is everything to me and my faith in Him is where I draw my strength and wisdom. That being said, everything else flows from that relationship. 

A little of my professional story... I started my sales career originally in retail sales at T-Mobile and eventually moved into an inside sales role for an EdTech company in 2006. This led me into recruiting for degree programs in cyber security for Utica College, one of our partner schools. I did that for 12 years and during that time I was also involved in a leadership team that was building an e-commerce business on the side. Through that business I was reading a ton of books, listening to successful people on CD, and growing my skills professionally. In 2016 I decided to make a change and partnered up with a friend of mine who had been running a recruiting company for about 5 yrs and we started Tutela Talent which would focus on recruitment of cyber security and IT talent. I learned recruiting and how to run a new business all at the same time. It was like drinking from a firehose!! Eventually, I started to create success and landed some big clients such as Electronic Arts and T-Mobile(before they were breached T-Mobile). From there our business started to focus more and more on security leadership roles at the Director level to VP and I found this to be an area of focus I really enjoyed. 

Today I run Tutela Talent a small boutique recruiting firm where we specialize in placing cybersecurity, IT, and cloud infrastructure engineering talent from individual contributor to C level.  

At home, I am married to my beautiful God-fearing wife who is from Brazil, and my 3 kids ages 25, 12, and 9. I enjoy working out with my wife at the gym, singing in the choir at my church, reading the Bible, eating great food, playing basketball(when I can find the time these days), and traveling with my wife. I also enjoy hiking, skiing, biking, paddle-boarding, going to the beach, playing volleyball, and just being active.

I attempted to launch a startup focusing on the business end of security, measuring outcomes and maturity levels of security teams using data and metrics. We had a lot of traction with customers and design partners, but sadly we couldn't raise the funding needed to hire out the team. So, I shut it down to try again some other day.

CEO - Co-founder

Super security nerd | Security Tinkerer

30+ years of information and cyber security experience, both as an IC and as a leader of teams. “People first” has always been my approach. I have 3x led entire security and IT functions at smaller companies, and been the CISOs +1 leading big teams at larger orgs. I've also spent time on the product side, trying to make better tooling for people like me. With a mix of security, IT and product under my belt, I'm at a place where connections, making meaningful change and driving impact in peoples lives, mean a lot to me. The smartest person I know once told me "Problems are really opportunities in disguise"​, and that's something I always try to see.

My personal values revolve around empathy and respect, integrity, personal accountability and always being curious. As an HSP with a high EQ, this is a must for me.
