Experienced Cybersecurity Professional | Army National Guard Veteran | Cyber Threat Intelligence SpecialistMy journey in IT began in 2014 when I took on a Tier 1 Helpdesk role, progressing to network engineering and then moving into cybersecurity. Since 2017, I have been deeply engaged in the cybersecurity field, initially as a defensive cyber operator with the Army National Guard and shortly after through various civilian roles. I started as a Tier 1 Security Operations Center (SOC) Analyst and advanced to manage a SOC team before laterally moving into cyber threat intelligence.Throughout my career, I’ve specialized in understanding the capabilities of security tools and developing tailored use cases to meet the unique needs of my stakeholders.
