My name is Dr. Josephine Leach. I am a part-time instructor at Old Dominion University School Cybersecurity Master's program. I have been in the IT field for over twenty-two years and have completed five college degrees. I completed a Ph.D. in Cybersecurity in 2020 where I focused on Cloud security in federal agencies. Teaching has been a natural progression from my passion for learning.
