• Designed a pipeline leveraging Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) and Large Language Models (LLMs) to enhance domain-specific knowledge retrieval and automate the creation of security tests from STIGs, accelerating security profile delivery.• Utilized OpenAI API and LangChain's Chroma vector store, and custom embeddings to optimize context retrieval from various security resource documentations.• Developed and implemented a comprehensive 4-hour course on writing security results converters to enable data sharing across all cyber tooling. The course is also utilized to upskill experts across various government organizations.

• Engineered and implemented an end-to-end DevSecOps pipeline (hosted on EC2) to automate critical tasks such as hardening, validation, and visualization of Infrastructure/Platform cybersecurity. The prototype informs platform owners of cybersecurity risks and improves the speed of capability deployment in development, test, and production environments.• Presented and demonstrated the prototype pipeline directly to customers, articulating intricate technical details while highlighting its operational benefits and simplicity.• Utilized Ansible playbooks to orchestrate automated infrastructure hardening and implementing Chef InSpec compliance profiles to perform rigorous security controls validation.

• Developed an initial, modern reimplementation for STIGViewer within Heimdall (a full-stack application for viewing security results) - https://github.com/mitre/heimdall2/tree/master.• Expanded the enterprise capabilities of Heimdall, one of the flagship applications within the Security Automation Framework - https://github.com/mitre/heimdall2/tree/master.

• Authored the SAF CLI (Command Line Interface), a software tool that streamlines security automation for IT Systems and DevOps pipelines (over 100,000 downloads) - https://github.com/mitre/saf.• Published libraries to normalize outputs from various cybersecurity scanning tools into the Heimdall Data Format (HDF) to aid in the DevOps processes of various government sponsors and commercial partners - https://github.com/mitre/heimdall2/tree/master/libs/hdf-converters.
