What I'm looking for

I seek a role that challenges me and allows for professional growth in cybersecurity.

I am a dedicated and detail-oriented SOC Analyst with over three years of experience in the cybersecurity field. My expertise lies in IBM Q Radar management, log analysis, incident response, and vulnerability assessment. I have a proven track record of leading successful security upgrades, including the migration of Trellix Endpoint Security and the integration of Ivanti Security Control. My commitment to enhancing organizational security is evident in my proactive approach to threat monitoring and incident reporting.

Throughout my career, I have developed and implemented security policies, managed endpoint protection, and performed thorough intrusion detection. I am skilled in configuring and maintaining security tools such as EDR, IDS/IPS, and firewalls, ensuring compliance with cybersecurity frameworks like NIST and ISO 27001. My ability to stay updated with the latest cybersecurity threats and trends allows me to generate detailed security reports and provide actionable recommendations for risk reduction.
