What I'm looking for

I’m looking to expand my SOC and vulnerability management impact—building automation, improving detection and incident response, and strengthening compliance (PCI DSS) and hardening with real-world, hands-on security engineering.

I’m an IT Security Analyst with a strong background in network and security administration. I specialize in identifying and remediating vulnerabilities across networks, applications, and websites.

At Vervent, I built IT security infrastructure from the ground up and supported security analyst operations for 5,000+ endpoints and 2,500 employees. I built and operated a 24×7 Security Operations Center (SOC) using SIEM/SOAR with threat intelligence integration, automation, and incident response.

I lead high-impact security governance and readiness work, including firewall rule reviews, user access reviews, risk assessments, and PCI DSS/SOC audits. I also drive incident response policy training and tabletop exercises, and I’ve implemented tenantwide multifactor authentication with compliance policies to block access from unmanaged/untrusted devices.

I also lead vulnerability management operations to support audits and continuous compliance efforts. Earlier, as an IT Security Intern, I supported Windows 10 migration, managed Splunk SIEM daily, and configured essential data center networking equipment—while currently pursuing CompTIA Security+ and CEH (Certified Ethical Hacker).
