LEADERSHIP POSITIONS
-President and Founder, PhishTrain, LLC., - I founded PhishTrain in late 2014 in response to continued cyber attacks on international organizations. I built a team to develop the platform and provide service to a plethora of companies around the globe, including multiple Fortune 500 clients. PhishTrain involves sending simulated phishing attacks to employees to test their responses. If we see that they interact with the fake phishing attack, PhishTrain’s platform immediately enrolls them into a detailed educational module. The client is then able to view analytics on employee performance and educational benchmarks. Visit at https://www.phishtrain.com (Sophomore, Junior, and Senior Years)
