Transportation Engineering Technician III at Mississippi Department of Transportation, monitoring infrastructure data and investigating security events.

United States
Message

At Mississippi Department of Transportation, I lead monitoring and validation of critical transportation infrastructure data and field operations. I identify irregularities, document findings, and escalate risks that may affect safety and public systems.

At ERDCWERX, I analyzed emerging defense technologies and assessed technical risk, resilience, security considerations, and mission applicability. I also evaluated technical documentation and patent portfolios, sharing concise recommendations with engineers and government stakeholders.

In my Windows Brute-Force Detection & Active Directory / Splunk Home Lab, I configured Windows security monitoring and investigated repeated failed-logon activity. My graduate research at Alcorn State University evaluated machine-learning intrusion detection models for smart transportation networks.
