Fusion Center Conference

In October 2019, I presented to the Washington State Fusion Center Crime and Safety Conference in Leavenworth, Washington.

My presentation was in two parts:

  • Thornton Tomasetti’s evolving security capabilities from primarily blast-hardening to more general security and risk assessment and mitigation
  • As part of the evolving security capabilities, I presented my own active-shooter research (more here)

The venue was great and the other presentations covered a range of interesting topics from a PNW connection to terrorism, cyber and physical security nexus, fourth-generation nerve agent attacks in the UK. The real attraction, though, was my 3-month old son Owen who, along with my wife, joined me for the trip making this our first trip as a family.
