Solution Architect focused on cloud security and partner ecosystem enablement, translating complex capabilities into business value.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I’m a security architect and customer-facing engineer with 25+ years of hands-on experience at the intersection of cloud security operations and pre-sales. I design solutions, build credibility with technical and executive audiences, and translate complex platform capabilities into clear business value.
At Sumo Logic, I led enterprise proof-of-value engagements across Fortune 500 environments, delivering ingestion architecture, detection content, and SIEM + SOAR workflows. At Galaxy Digital, I own the production security stack across CrowdStrike, Palo Alto Panorama, Okta, SOAR, and 15+ integrated log sources—while producing executive-facing operational reporting and running POC evaluations to reduce risk. Earlier, I architected and brought to market a bundled security product at Micromuse that generated ~$20M in revenue, and I’ve supported partner and industry representation through conference speaking and technical documentation.
