About
I’m a U.S. Navy Veteran with an active Secret Security Clearance and a growing cybersecurity foundation focused on SOC operations, threat detection, and vulnerability management. I combine military discipline, operational leadership, and hands-on technical training to help organizations detect, triage, and reduce cyber risk.
I currently hold CompTIA CySA+, Security+, and Network+ certifications and am completing a B.S. in Cybersecurity at National University. Through structured labs and coursework, I’ve built practical experience in SIEM analysis, network monitoring, intrusion detection, vulnerability assessment, and incident response workflows.
In my Navy logistics and security-related roles, I led teams, enforced standards, managed high-tempo operations, and protected mission-critical resources—experience that translates directly to cyber defense environments where accuracy, urgency, and accountability matter.
I’m actively pursuing opportunities in:
SOC Analyst
Cybersecurity Analyst
Cyber Threat Analyst
Cyber Defense Analyst
Vulnerability Management Analyst
Core strengths: SIEM monitoring, alert triage, incident documentation, vulnerability remediation support, risk awareness, cross-functional communication, and continuous improvement.

I spent the entire day architecting my Virtual Machine environment to kick off a new personal coding project. After evaluating my options, I’ve decided to move forward with PyCharm as my primary IDE to streamline the development process.
The foundation is officially set—I’m hitting the ground running and starting the build next week. Getting the local environment right is often half the battle in any development lifecycle.
