What I'm looking for

I seek a challenging role in a dynamic organization that values innovation and security, offering opportunities for professional growth and collaboration.

I am a results-driven Senior Information Security Analyst with over 5 years of experience in cybersecurity, specializing in cloud security, identity and access management, and security operations. My expertise lies in Patch & Vulnerability Management, Incident Response, and Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC). I have a proven track record in threat detection and embedding security into CI/CD pipelines to enhance cloud resilience.

Throughout my career, I have led significant initiatives, such as reducing critical vulnerabilities by 70% across 25,000+ endpoints and achieving a 98% compliance rate in endpoint security. My experience includes architecting secure cloud infrastructures on AWS and Azure, developing IAM policies, and automating vulnerability scans, which have collectively improved security posture and operational efficiency. I am passionate about leveraging my skills to drive security innovations and protect sensitive data.
