Message

I am an accomplished Cybersecurity Incident Manager with over five years of dedicated leadership in high-severity threat containment and strategic security operations. With a strong foundation in process engineering and cross-functional collaboration, I excel at translating complex technical threats into actionable risk intelligence for executive stakeholders, effectively bridging the gap between security operations and business decision-making. Throughout my tenure at Bank of Montreal and beyond, I have demonstrated a commitment to operational resilience by streamlining incident response protocols, reducing Mean Time to Respond (MTTR), and fortifying organizational security postures against evolving cyber threats. As an ITIL and Security+ certified professional, I combine my deep technical expertise with a passion for process improvement and mentorship to drive excellence in enterprise-wide security.
