Cybersecurity Guardian & Digital Problem Solver

In the dynamic world of cybersecurity, I wear multiple hats - from being a vigilant SOC warrior to a compliance and GRC support maestro, and a system administration guru. My mission? To seal digital realms, ensuring our partners are not just protected, but thriving in a secure cyber landscape.

My Toolbox of Tricks and Expertise:

Digital Detective Skills: Intermediate networking knowledge isn't just jargon for me. It's about navigating the intricate web of switching, routing, VLANs, WLANs, WANs, and VPNs with the agility of a digital ninja.

Microsoft 365 Maestro: I have a strong working knowledge of all the nooks and crannies of Microsoft 365 and its services, including Identity Management, Endpoint Security, Intune, and MDM. Think of me as the wizard who can cast protective spells across your digital kingdom!

Azure Adventurer: My basic working knowledge of Microsoft Azure isn't just about migrations and new builds; it's about pioneering secure digital frontiers in the cloud.

Antivirus Artisan & Backup Buff: Not just 'excellent knowledge' but a real knack for navigating the labyrinth of Antivirus (EDR/XDR) applications and Backup Solutions. I don't just use these tools; I make them sing.

Apple Aficionado: Deploying MacOS and iOS? That's my jam. Especially when it's about weaving them into the fabric of secure enterprise environments via Microsoft Intune and MAM Solutions.

My Quest:

To leverage EDR and Managed MDR to craft world-class solutions that don’t just protect our partners but also add a sparkle of digital magic to their day-to-day operations.
As a proactive guardian, my job is to not only mitigate and prevent breaches but to predict and prepare for the unseen, ensuring our digital fortress is impregnable.
To make compliance and GRC not just a checklist but a cornerstone of our cybersecurity strategy, ensuring our partners are not just safe, but also compliant and ahead of the curve.

Cybersecurity Consultant | Virtual CISO for Startups

I help startups level up their security without slowing them down. Most early-stage teams don’t have a full-time CISO — that’s where I step in.

•Audits & Assessments: Ran deep-dive security audits, uncovered hidden vulnerabilities, and implemented fixes that immediately improved compliance scores and reduced risk.
•Building Security Roadmaps: Worked hand-in-hand with founders, engineers, and ops teams to design custom security roadmaps that made startups more resilient and investor-ready.
•Virtual CISO: Guided teams through complex regulatory frameworks (ISO, SOC2, GDPR), giving them the confidence to close deals with enterprise customers.
•Incident Response: Transformed “scramble mode” into clear playbooks — startups went from reactive to proactive in handling security threats.

The result? Startups I worked with saw measurable improvements in compliance, fewer security incidents, and stronger trust with customers and investors.
