What I'm looking for

I'm seeking a cybersecurity role focused on GRC, IAM, ISSO, or information security operations, where I can apply my federal security, compliance, incident documentation, access-control, and secure-data-handling experience while continuing to grow technically.

I've spent 13+ years at the Transportation Security Administration protecting high-volume regulated operations through identity verification, access control, threat recognition, and risk-based screening.

I document incidents, equipment tests, discrepancies, and escalations, and coordinate response activities with supervisors, law enforcement, ICE, CBP, and FAMS. I also collaborated with engineers and software engineers on CT technology feedback to identify operational and software issues.

Earlier DoD contractor work involved classified-data handling, tactical communications monitoring, secure data transfer, first-line troubleshooting, ticket escalation, and system-functionality verification. I'm completing the Google Cybersecurity Professional Certificate and studying for CompTIA Security+ as I transition toward GRC, IAM, ISSO, and information security operations.
