@michellebrown5
I am a cyber fusion analyst specializing in defense and policy.
What I'm looking for
I am a cyber fusion and policy analyst with extensive experience in cyber defense methodologies, information assurance, and all-source analysis. I thrive in fast-paced environments and focus on producing measurable process improvements across interagency operations.
I have authored Department of Defense DoDIN Operating Area playbooks, overseen vulnerability alert systems, managed Splunk, and helped create Cyber Task Orders and Operations Orders to guide mitigation strategies. I led a seven-person strategic reporting cell, issued binding operational directives to coordinate threat responses across national security systems, and maintained continuity of $5M+ government contracts to ensure mission readiness.
Previously an all-source data analyst in the U.S. Air Force, I developed training plans, standard operating procedures, and systems to improve secure interagency communication and field operations. I hold TS/SCI w FSP (2022), completed Network+ and CISSP coursework, and am pursuing Security+ certification (2025); I bring disciplined leadership, attention to detail, and a collaborative approach to complex cyber challenges.
