At Agile Defense, I implement and maintain Red Hat Enterprise Satellite and Capsule servers, support security updates across environments, and help keep Red Hat systems aligned with NIST 800-53. I also lead Cisco Firepower firewall migrations and access-policy consolidation across sites.

Previously, at Institute for Defense Analyses, I monitored threats, conducted threat hunting, and supported incident response. I implemented XSOAR playbooks, developed YARA rules for email threat detection, and served as the SME for Data Loss Prevention solutions.
