I am a graduate of an accelerated, executive management program featuring courses in data mining and analytics, cloud computing, cybersecurity, and information systems related to the intersection between business and technology. The MSIS program emphasized the potential for informational technology to inform business, through a cohesive and holistic approach that included building a secure, available data pipeline within the cloud, transforming the data, and then using derived analysis towards strategic and effective business decision making.- Participated in several Scholars' Studio public presentations, speaking on IT and cybersecurity issues.- Studied information security from a mixture of perspectives, including that from a management perspective of security governance and security management, to understanding tools and techniques of a Security Operations Center, to technical control implementation using cloud platform resources. Some projects included: - Utilized SIEM tools (Splunk, Azure) to identify, monitor, and audit logged data points captured from virtual machines, networks, and computing processes for security posture analysis - Case study analysis of information security scenarios with leadership reports and presentations - Hands-on implementation of AWS and Azure networks, resources with corresponding technical controls, including firewalls, security zones, NAT, identity and access management
