What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead or build AI-driven threat detection, Zero Trust, cloud security, SOC automation, and DevSecOps programs for regulated enterprise environments.

At Hartford HealthCare, I protect EHR systems through enterprise security architecture, AI-driven threat detection, and multi-cloud controls across AWS, Azure, and GCP. I reduced cloud security incidents by 40% while supporting HIPAA, HITRUST, NIST CSF, ISO 27001, and SOC 2 compliance.

I architected an ML-based threat detection platform integrating UEBA with Splunk and Microsoft Sentinel, cutting advanced-threat detection time by 55% across 15,000+ endpoints. My Python automation for IOC enrichment and SOAR playbooks reduced response time for critical incidents by 40%.

Across Lincoln Financial Group, Kshema General Insurance, TCS, and Verizon, I've delivered Zero Trust, SOC modernization, IAM/PAM, DevSecOps, incident response, and vulnerability management programs. I bring 10+ years of experience securing healthcare, financial services, and telecom environments.
