At Digital Networking Solutions / DarkRogue Cybersecurity Solutions, I conduct cybersecurity research and practical security exercises in ethical hacking, penetration testing methodologies, and vulnerability identification. I also support client infrastructure and assess IT processes to improve security posture.

I designed and deployed an Active Directory environment for Barbados Civil Aviation Training Centre, supporting approximately 30 workstations with AD DS, DNS, DHCP, and GPOs. I documented the deployment, including its OU hierarchy, security groups, and secured shared resources.

I designed and developed Praetorian Security Operations Center, a project for centralized security monitoring, threat detection, endpoint visibility, and incident response that is in production at four local pharmacies. I also implemented segmented network upgrades for pharmacy locations using Cisco Business Switches and Netgate pfSense firewalls.
