I build AI-powered cloud security and backend systems that reduce risk, latency, and operational overhead.
What I'm looking for
I'm securing multi-cloud configurations across 150+ AWS, Azure, and GCP accounts at CU Boulder’s Office of Information Technology. I built an Amazon Bedrock and RAG triage pipeline for security events, automated alert validation to cut weekly volume by 85%, and created an AI onboarding chatbot that reduced onboarding time by 40%.
Previously at Forcepoint, I built Cloud NGFW, Secure Web Gateway, and Web Security Cloud features for its SASE platform. I redesigned an IPSec VPN traffic-log pipeline handling 50M+ logs per day with Lambda, EventBridge, DynamoDB, and OpenSearch Serverless, eliminating recurring cluster failures and saving $24,000 annually.
I also led k6 performance testing at 10K requests per second, reduced p99 latency by 35%, and brought backend API latency down from seven seconds to one. My work spans cloud security, serverless systems, IAM, infrastructure as code, networking, CI/CD, and secure API design.
Alongside industry work, I’ve supported computer security education at the University of Colorado Boulder and explored AI security through adversarial ML, malware analysis, exploit generation, and agentic AI guardrails. I’m pursuing an MS in Computer Science with a Security specialization.
