Hey there, I’m Dana. I'm is a serial entrepreneur who has founded several software-based technology companies that I've taken public or sold through acquisition. I have a passion for the startup growth mindset and believe that there aren't challenges in every opportunity, but opportunities in every challenge. Everything is impossible until someone does it. .

I've spent the last 25 years focusing on software security and have been awarded the recognition and designation by Microsoft as an Enterprise Security MVP for the past twelve years. This last year I was also awarded for my Azure experience in Cloud and Datacenter Management, and was appointed as a Microsoft Regional Director.

I travel regularly between my homes in Vancouver, British Columbia and Las Vegas, Nevada. When I'm not working or touring around the world to speak about information security and threat modeling, you can find me engaging as an Azure Advisor with Microsoft offering suggestions, guidance and recommendations to Microsoft's Azure strategy around technologies like cloud identity and security, containerization and serverless computing.
