What I'm looking for

I seek senior-level roles where I can lead IAM and security architecture, drive Zero Trust and mobile security initiatives, mentor teams, and deliver secure, scalable identity solutions.

I am an Identity and Security Architect with 16 years of hands-on experience designing, developing, and implementing enterprise Identity and Access Management solutions across APAC, CEMEA, North America, and Europe.

I have led multiple IAM projects, delivered technical onboarding and best practices, and provided consulting to product, partner, and customer success teams to ensure secure go-lives.

My technical strengths include ForgeRock OpenIDM/OpenAM, OAuth2/OIDC, JWT, HSM integrations, Zero Trust implementations, and mobile application security aligned to MASVS.

I am results-driven, focused on secure-by-design architectures and operational support, and eager to leverage my expertise to strengthen an organization's identity posture and enable secure customer experiences.
