I design cloud security across GCP, AWS, and Azure, strengthen IAM and vulnerability management, and help enterprise customers clear security procurement gates.

I’ve led 10+ ISO 27001 implementations, built AI governance for production LLM systems, and reduced cyber risk and repeat incidents through practical, secure-by-design programmes.
