What I'm looking for
I am a seasoned Cybersecurity Architect with over 15 years of experience designing and implementing security architectures for large enterprises and Canadian government environments.

My work spans security design patterns, Zero Trust, IAM, SIEM deployments (Azure Sentinel, Splunk, QRadar), and regulatory compliance (ITSG-33, NIST 800-53, ISO 27001).
