“The contribution that Nelson Balido has made in advising the Department as a member of the Homeland Security Advisory Council (HSAC) has been invaluable. His hard work and input was critical to the HSAC’s core recommendations to the Secretary on ways to further accelerate the maturation of this young Department. Nelson is not only an outstanding manager who understands the challenges of starting new organizations, he has truly extraordinary communications skills to help articulate the strategic vision needed to win the support of our stakeholders.”

Chad Sweet Co-Founder of The Chertoff Group

“Nelson is the most fearless and connected human being that I’ve ever met. It’s really pretty amazing. I have little doubt that if your company needed access to the Queen herself, and he didn’t already know her, he’d figure out how to get that access then call you up as he’s sitting in her private parlor having tea.”
