I like building things that make security less painful and more human.

I build and lead security programs that help real defenders do real work — incident response, cloud automation, and everything in between.

My goal is simple: make security faster, smarter, and easier to live with.

What I Do

I help teams make security work better by detecting issues faster, responding smarter, and automating the stuff that slows people down.

I’ve worked across public, private, and defense environments, helping organizations improve visibility, simplify their tools, and strengthen how they manage cloud and hybrid systems.

I like taking messy or complex problems and making them practical. Sometimes that’s a process, a playbook, or a bit of automation that saves time.

Background

I began my career in the military, learning to stay calm under pressure and solve problems collaboratively.

That mindset still guides how I work today. Steady, focused, and team-driven.

Since then, I’ve helped stabilize cloud and on-prem environments, supported incident response efforts, and worked with teams to strengthen their defenses and processes.

I’ve also taken part in multi-state cyber exercises and collaborated with both blue and purple teams to build stronger, more resilient systems.

Mission

To bridge the gap between strategy and execution, between what frameworks say and what actually protects people.

I care about building systems and cultures that defend well and run well.

Security should enable, not slow down.
