## About

```text
At Microsoft, I own day-to-day security posture across a multi-business-unit Azure estate, working with engineering and service-owner teams to identify risks and drive remediation. I also built automated KPI and coverage reporting to replace a manual management pull.

I lead detection engineering in Microsoft Sentinel, tuning KQL analytics and handling Tier-3 investigations across malware, web exploitation, identity abuse, and data movement. I also lead Purple Team validation and built Logic App automation that enriches Sentinel alerts with asset, owner, and change context.

I currently lead security assessments of Azure OpenAI and agentic AI adoption. I designed and prototyped an LLM security gateway with guardrails and prompt-injection filtering, and built LangChain middleware to validate tool invocations and constrain agent scope.
