What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters growth, values security, and promotes a collaborative culture.

I am a dynamic Information Security Professional with over 15 years of experience at the intersection of IT and cybersecurity, specializing in safeguarding critical infrastructure and high-stakes environments. With a BSc in Computer Science and an MSc in Information Security underway, I combine technical expertise with strategic insight to deliver resilient, business-aligned security solutions.

My core strength lies in implementing and maturing ISO 27001-aligned Information Security Management Systems (ISMS). I have led initiatives that ensured compliance, mitigated vulnerabilities, and embedded security awareness into operational culture, particularly within complex broadcast ecosystems. My experience includes being part of the 24/7 Security Operations Center during the FIFA World Cup 2022, ensuring real-time threat visibility and rapid incident response for mission-critical systems.

Driven by a passion for resilience and a proactive, detail-focused mindset, I bridge the gap between security, compliance, and operations across IT, OT, and media domains. My toolkit includes hands-on experience with SIEM, SOAR, EDR, and antivirus platforms, complemented by skills in malware analysis, vulnerability management, and OT/ICS cybersecurity.
