At Cox Communications, I lead incident detection, investigation, and response across national network infrastructure using SIEM, XDR, Elastic, and enterprise firewalls.

I drive threat hunting and purple team exercises using MITRE ATT&CK and IOCs, analyze network traffic and security logs, and build PowerShell automation that reduces detection and response effort.

Over 14 years at Cox, I've progressed from software engineering and technical support to cybersecurity, helping reduce security incidents by 30% through proactive risk management and advanced tooling.
