Now booking keynotes, trainings, panels and podcasts for 2027.

Nancy talks to executives the way she runs a project: in numbered steps, in plain English and without scare tactics.
She has keynoted the CMMC Implementer's Conference, presented with Katie Arrington, the former Department of Defense official who led the creation of CMMC, and spoken at National CMMC Day in Washington, DC.
Her core message is that CMMC is organizational change. Only a third of the program is technical, so handing it to IT leaves most of the work undone. Audiences leave with a numbered plan they can start on Monday and a clear picture of what leadership has to own. Her talks draw on 30 years of regulated, high stakes projects in hospitals, county government and the defense supply chain.

CMMC enforcement, False Claims Act exposure, supply chain risk and the questions primes now ask their subcontractors.

A practitioner's view of CMMC, ransomware and local government security, in plain English for owners and executives.
