Well, I think you made it less complicated because I'm sitting here going, whoa, wait, that's a lot. That's amazing. And the fact that you've gotten to travel the world and help people through crisis is, it's really admirable. So thank you for that work because we need it. We need more of it as well. Thank you. Appreciate that.

So can you give me like a little bit of, I guess, day to day, like how does that work for you? Because people don't, sorry, I'm generalizing, forgive me listeners, but I think generally speaking, people don't understand what it means to deal with crisis management in these types of situations.

Thank you for that. That's really enlightening. I think it's so important that people start to understand how these crises are going to be compounded by the amount of extra technology that's around them and the different types of human aspects in these situations.

Because they're obviously emotionally heightened a lot of times because you're dealing with displacement and migration and food and water. And that is very emotionally tied into being a human being because it's something that we need to survive. So I'm sure being level-headed really comes in quite handy at times. It can certainly help, yeah. Well, yeah.

I mean, if you're dealing with crisis, you have to keep cool, right? You can't be all stressed out and flailing like an inflatable tube man, which is the same in cybersecurity. We can't be running around like a chicken with their head cut off. We have to be able to cut through the noise to get to the root of the problem, if you will. So I completely get that type of aspect.

And I feel the same way about policy. You have to have a common language in order to get people at the table. Because if you're not speaking the same way, then... You're speaking in 12 different ways and that's not going to help anything.

Part of the reason why I'm such an advocate for different policies and regulations because they create common ground and that's what we need to be able to move forward. People are probably like, well, why is Kyle on your show, Kristen? What's going on? Well, actually, it's because we're going to talk about food insecurity and as it relates to crisis management and beyond.
