What I'm looking for

I'm seeking a senior IT role to lead cloud migrations and cybersecurity initiatives, drive automation and cost savings, work in a collaborative, security-focused culture, and continue growth into architecture and leadership.

I am a technology expert with seven years' experience managing complex IT systems and delivering cloud and cybersecurity solutions. I focus on aligning technical initiatives with business goals to increase efficiency, security, and growth.

At TechWave I led the migration of company infrastructure to AWS, achieving 25% operational cost savings, and developed a cybersecurity approach that improved data protection compliance by 40%. I also drove automation efforts that improved team efficiency by 30%.

Previously, as an IT Systems Analyst I managed daily operations for systems supporting 300+ users, implemented disaster recovery plans that resulted in 99.9% uptime, and conducted regular security audits to strengthen compliance and performance. I enjoy training users and improving software adoption.

I hold an M.Sc. in Information Systems from NYU and a B.Sc. in Computer Science, and I maintain certifications including AWS Certified Solutions Architect, CCNP, and CISSP. I bring hands-on cloud, networking, and security expertise and a collaborative approach to technical leadership.
