With over 25 years of experience, I bridge the gap between human resources and security to help organizations build healthier, safer work environments. I have held HR leadership positions with the federal courts and local government in the Seattle area, and I now apply these skills to my consulting practice, helping both private and public sector clients navigate crises and implement effective prevention strategies.
As a leader with the Association of Threat Assessment Professionals (ATAP) for over 15 years, I have trained thousands globally on building effective partnerships between security, HR, and community stakeholders. I also represent Human Resources on Pinkerton’s Global Threat Management Group to deliver objective, informed, and holistic threat management solutions.
The effort to eradicate hate requires the active participation of every component of our society, to include governments, the private sector, communities of faith and indeed every aspect of civil society. There is no more urgent task in front of us. The organizers of the Eradicate Hate Global Summit are doing the United States and the world an enormous service by tackling hatred and extremism with a focus on honest dialogue and conversation, genuine learning and practical solutions. This will not happen overnight, but the Pittsburgh community’s leadership in this effort is genuinely inspiring and motivating.
