Aurora

1. Where were you in your career right before joining Leadership Torrance? Heading Aurora a Cyber Security Consulting Firm

2.  Where are you in your career and life now? Aurora grew to a Mid-Sized Business and just sold to a publicly traded Cyber Security Company

3.  What insight or benefit of Leadership Torrance do you value most? The ability to work with other leaders – my leadership team were all Team As and when we started everyone wanted to be “right”. Lots of options and egos clashed and it was an amazing experience to get everyone to work together

4.  Anything else you would like to share? This was one of the most amazing experiences in my life/career. I barely knew anyone in Torrance when I started the program. I complete Leadership Torrance, headed a Chamber committee, then Director and then Chairman in two or three short years. The network, understanding of local history, Government, Business and  Education is phenomenal
