As security needs are growing and becoming more sophisticated and diverse, security solutions require the synchronicity of a world-class orchestra that never stops performing.

An innovative cybersecurity engineer who excels at providing top-notch information security solutions, I have experience and knowledge in the development and execution of security risk management strategies and related programs. I have collaborated and partnered to develop value as well as deliver high-impact security solutions that contribute to the successful implementation of strategic initiatives.

Leveraging cross-functional resources to deliver better outcomes, I provide a range of information security management services and support including cyber threat incident management, vulnerability assessments & remediation, system backup & recovery, and information gathering.

Working in a fast-paced, highly pressurized environment, you are constantly faced with complex situations that require quick, thorough, and effective decisions. In the information security industry in which I have worked, the decisions are high risk with large amounts of money at stake.

On a personal level, I not only work well with others but can also use my individual initiative to see tasks through on my own. Over time I have gained extensive knowledge of information security operations and learned how to work against tight time deadlines that have conflicting priorities. I am someone who enjoys challenges and wants to make a real impact and contribute directly to creating a huge success story for the company I work for.
