About

I've worked every side of this industry.

End user. Integrator. Consultant. Manufacturer. I've sat in every seat at the table — plus engineering, sales, operations, and product management. That cross-functional experience gives me a perspective most consultants don't have: I understand how security solutions are built, how they're sold, how they're deployed, and why adoption succeeds or fails. I speak regularly at ISC West, ISC East, and Access Control Summit, and write about the future of access control in commercial real estate.

How I help

Go-to-Market Strategy

Direct vs. distribution. Dealer programs vs. integrator-direct. National accounts vs. regional focus. I'll help you build a GTM that fits your product and your resources.

Channel Strategy

The channel is everything in this industry. I help you understand integrator economics, dealer expectations, distribution dynamics, and how to build programs that actually get traction.

Build vs. Buy vs. Partner

Should you build that feature, acquire it, or integrate? I'll help you evaluate the landscape — who's worth partnering with, who's acquisition bait, and what you should own vs. outsource.

Product Positioning

Access control, video, intrusion, intercoms — each has its own competitive dynamics and buyer expectations. I'll help you position against incumbents and find whitespace.

Market Entry Advisory

New to physical security? I'll help you understand the players, the channel structure, the buyer journey, and why this market doesn't work like IT or SaaS.

Investor Due Diligence

Evaluating a security company? I provide context on competitive positioning, technology differentiation, channel strength, and whether the RMR story holds up.
