For nearly 20 years, Connie Matthews Reynolds, VP of COISSA, has been a driving force behind the COISSA community.

In this interview, she shares what has meant the most throughout her journey. It is not just serving on the board. It is helping build a community where cybersecurity professionals come together, share knowledge, support one another, and make each other stronger.

That spirit of collaboration continues to define COISSA today, and it is because of leaders like Connie who have invested their time, passion, and dedication over the years.

Thank you, Connie, for helping shape the community we know today! 💙
