Securing What’s Now.
Anticipating What’s Next.
Future-Focused Security. Proven Experience.
I help organizations navigate the evolving landscape of cloud, cybersecurity, and AI –
turning complex challenges into secure, scalable solutions.
Cloud
Secure. Scalable. Cloud-First.
From AWS to Azure, I design cloud environments that are resilient, compliant, and secure by default. Whether you’re migrating legacy infrastructure, refining DevOps pipelines, or implementing CNAPP platforms, I help teams align architecture with governance—without slowing down innovation.
Cybersecurity / Risk Mgmt
From Risk to Resilience.
Security is only effective when it’s strategic. I specialize in building cybersecurity programs and risk frameworks that align with business priorities and industry regulations. From NIST CSF assessments to executive reporting, I help organizations stay compliant—and stay ahead.
AI Security
Trustworthy AI. Secure by Design.
As AI systems scale, so do the risks. With a Master’s in AI/ML and a deep background in cloud and cybersecurity, I work at the intersection of innovation and protection—helping orgs secure MLOps pipelines, protect models and data, and adopt governance frameworks like NIST AI RMF.
