About Me
Transforming Cloud Security Strategy into Measurable Results
As an ISC2 CISSP professional, I specialize in transforming cloud engineering and cybersecurity strategy into measurable results. I bring over 10 years of expertise in leading initiatives that secure mission-critical cloud infrastructure. I manage the end-to-end implementation of advanced security controls—including Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM), Kubernetes Security Posture Management (KSPM), and Data Security Posture Management (DSPM)—by driving alignment across development, security, and vendor teams to ensure delivery is always high-quality, compliant, and scalable.
