What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that offers opportunities for growth in cybersecurity, a collaborative team environment, and the chance to work on innovative security projects.

With over five years of experience in IT Security and Cybersecurity, I have honed my skills in network security products, particularly with Palo Alto technologies. My current role as an Information Technology Security Engineer at JCH Hospitality LLC involves collaborating with the Director of Cybersecurity to enhance our security roadmap and strengthen our overall security posture. I am adept at implementing new technologies, managing existing systems, and leading incident response efforts.

Previously, I served as a Threat & Vulnerability Manager, where I coordinated regulatory information security reviews and managed our SIEM solution. My experience includes conducting security assessments, vulnerability management, and providing advisory support on security threats. I am committed to ensuring compliance with relevant security frameworks and fostering a culture of cybersecurity awareness across departments.
