I secure enterprise web applications, networks, and critical infrastructure across complex environments.
What I'm looking for
At The Home Depot, I configure, upgrade, and operate web application firewall controls for eCommerce and highly critical applications, onboarding systems without impact or incident. I improve security posture through policy audits, bot management, PCI monitoring, profile tuning, and executive-facing analytics.
Previously at Michigan State University and Okemos Public Schools, I secured firewalls, VPNs, two-factor authentication, content filtering, emergency systems, and IP camera infrastructure. I bring hands-on experience designing security controls, documenting operations, training support teams, and delivering projects on time and budget.
