About
As a results-driven security professional with 5+ years of experience, I bring expertise in security analysis, threat management, and incident response. With a strong foundation in security frameworks, compliance, and risk management, I excel in cloud security (Azure, AWS, GCP). My skills in threat detection, incident response, and security operations (SIEM, EDR/XDR) enable me to deliver effective security solutions. With strong analytical and problem-solving skills, I communicate effectively across technical and non-technical teams, driving security initiatives that meet regulatory standards and industry best practices.
