About

I am a serial entrepreneur with a rich background in cybersecurity. I led my first company, DCHQ, a cloud management startup, to acquisition, and later founded APISec.ai, which developed one of the first API security scanners. Before founding HoundDog.ai, I served as the VP of Product at Cyral, a data security platform that implements security controls on production data. My experience at Cyral, coupled with significant feedback from security and privacy teams frustrated by the prevalent reactive approach to data security and privacy—which often remains unaligned with evolving codebases—inspired me to start HoundDog.ai.
