About
My passion is to secure and protect people's data. With over 15 years of Cyber Security experience and 30 years of Information Technology background, my unique set of skills have enabled me to become an effective and efficient Cyber Security Engineer.
I function well on my own but truly value a diverse team that shares the same passion for performance that I have. I enjoy being creative in solving complex problems, thrive in productive environments and keep up with ever-changing technologies. I have worked as a Cybersecurity lead and Engineer, Network Engineer, SAN storage admin, Linux systems engineer, developed and managed teams, and driven multiple high-value projects to success.
When I am not working my day job, I enjoy working in my woodshop and spending time with my family.
