As a cybersecurity leader with a proven track record in incident response, threat detection, vulnerability management, and security operations, I thrive in high-stakes environments where complex challenges meet innovative solutions. Over the past decade, I’ve built and managed successful Security Operations Centers (SOCs) and cybersecurity teams for global organizations, delivering measurable improvements in cyber resilience, incident response efficiency, and program execution.I’m passionate about leveraging automation, orchestration, and detection engineering to streamline security operations and reduce manual efforts. By developing custom in-house automation tools and integrating platforms like Cortex XSOAR, I’ve consistently improved response times from hours to minutes, enabling teams to focus on high-priority tasks. Whether automating phishing remediation, domain blocking, or routine incident management, I strive to create systems that reduce operational overhead and enhance threat visibility.I’ve also led tabletop exercises and crisis simulations, leveraging frameworks like MITRE ATT&CK and the Cyber Kill Chain to strengthen incident readiness and organizational alignment during cybersecurity crises.In addition to my technical expertise, I bring a deep passion for metrics, data analysis, and storytelling through data visualization. I enjoy building and presenting compelling visualizations using Splunk, Power BI, and Tableau to translate complex security data into actionable insights. These tools help me communicate trends, risks, and results to stakeholders, enabling data-driven decisions across the organization.Notable achievements include:• Leading high-profile incident responses recognized by C-level executives and presented to the board.• Managing the Security Incident Response Team (CIRT), automating response communications and creating custom in-house tools to streamline workflows.• Developing automation solutions that drastically cut the time for routine tasks, allowing teams to focus on strategic investigations.• Designing dashboards and analytics models that provide real-time insights into SOC performance.I hold certifications like CISSP, AWS Certified Security Specialist, PMP, Agile Certified Practitioner (ACP), and Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH). Ranked in the top 1% on TryHackMe, I’m committed to hands-on learning and practical skills. My Master’s in Cybersecurity complements my expertise and leadership in cybersecurity operations.
