What I'm looking for
I am a Director of Cybersecurity with 15+ years leading enterprise security programs across governance, cloud and network architecture, incident response, and Zero Trust implementations. I translate regulatory frameworks (NIST, ISO27001, PCI-DSS, HIPAA, GDPR) into resilient cybersecurity roadmaps and have driven security practice transformations that improved profitability and operational reliability.
I build and mentor high-performing engineering teams, deploy large-scale cloud and network security solutions (Azure, AWS, GCP), and operationalize SIEM/SOAR, IDS/IPS, IAM and DLP platforms. My work includes delivering security for thousands of endpoints, directing cross-functional security product development, and advising Fortune 500 clients on risk mitigation and compliance.
