I came up through managed security operations, triaging network security alerts, coordinating incident response across global SOC teams, and building detection capabilities from the ground up. Over the years, that foundation grew into something much broader: threat intelligence and hunting, digital forensics, vulnerability management, security architecture, DevSecOps, cloud security, identity and access management, threat modeling, privacy and compliance, and program leadership, starting in managed security operations and growing into program leadership and executive advisory.

I hold a Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) in Cybersecurity and am completing a Master's in Artificial Intelligence, backed by certifications including CISSP, Project Management Professional (PMP), AWS Security Specialty, Certified Kubernetes Administrator (CKA), Certified Kubernetes Security Specialist (CKS), and a SANS Graduate Certificate in Incident Response comprising GIAC Certified Forensic Examiner (GCFE), GIAC Certified Forensic Analyst (GCFA), GIAC Enterprise Incident Response (GEIR), and GIAC Machine Learning Engineer (GMLE). That breadth reflects how I work: I don't specialize in one lane; I excel across the full spectrum.

What sets me apart is the ability to operate at every layer simultaneously. I can instrument a Kubernetes cluster, tune a SIEM, run a bug bounty program, architect a zero-trust IAM strategy, and present the risk posture to the board, all in the same week. That's what it means to be a player/coach.
