What I'm looking for

I'm open to remote and relocation opportunities where I can apply my IT and cybersecurity experience in IAM, cloud security, endpoint security, enterprise infrastructure, and security operations. I'm also open to Blue Team, Red Team, and GRC roles, with a focus on security, compliance, resilience, and continuous technical growth.

I’m an IT professional with 10+ years of experience in enterprise technology, with a growing focus on cybersecurity, including Identity and Access Management (IAM), cloud security, and enterprise security. My career has given me a strong foundation across IT operations, networking, systems, cloud technologies, and enterprise environments.

I hold Cisco networking certifications, AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Associate, Microsoft Azure Administrator Associate, CompTIA Security+, and CompTIA CySA+.
