What I'm looking for

I seek a dynamic role in cybersecurity that fosters growth and innovation.

I am a dedicated Cloud Security Engineer with over three years of experience in security risk analysis and cloud security engineering. My journey in cybersecurity has equipped me with a deep understanding of cloud computing strategies, particularly in AWS environments. I have successfully implemented security standards in accordance with NIST guidelines, conducted security assessments, and developed strategies to mitigate risks associated with cloud applications.

At Truist, I have automated role creation for cross-account access and designed secure cloud architectures. My role as a Security Risk Analyst at LinkedIn involved assessing security risks for various SaaS applications and collaborating with vendors to enhance security postures. I am passionate about leveraging my technical skills in IAM, SAML, and Terraform to create secure and efficient cloud environments.
