At Vervent, I lead cybersecurity engineering and operations for a global fintech organization with 5,000+ endpoints and 2,500 employees in a PCI DSS and SOC 2 regulated environment. I build defense-in-depth security across cloud, network, endpoint, email, and application layers, including a 24×7 SOC with SIEM/SOAR, threat intelligence, automation, and incident response.
I've delivered enterprise firewall migrations, HA deployments, vulnerability management, penetration testing, and compliance programs for Masten Space Systems, Los Angeles County, California Resources Corporation, Emser Tile, American Apparel, and NEOTech. My work has supported ITAR, EAR, CMMC, NIST, FIPS, PCI DSS, and SOC 2-aligned environments across cloud and on-premises infrastructure.
I also apply local and cloud LLMs to security automation, threat analysis, reporting, and agent workflows. I use containerized AI environments to help accelerate investigation, remediation, and security engineering without compromising sensitive data.
