My career has been marked by key roles at PwC, Claranet, and LyondellBasell, where I successfully strengthened security frameworks and led comprehensive vulnerability assessments.

My expertise lies in seamlessly integrating security practices into CI/CD pipelines and collaborating with government entities to enhance cybersecurity measures.
