About Me

I'm a Cybersecurity Specialist with hands-on experience defending healthcare infrastructure against modern threats. Currently operating at Sidney Health Center, I manage a comprehensive security stack that spans endpoint detection, identity governance, network perimeter, and cloud environments.

My academic foundation — a Master of Science in Cybersecurity from Rowan University — combined with industry certifications and real-world incident response experience drives my mission: making security measurable, resilient, and proactive.

I thrive at the intersection of threat intelligence and operational defense, turning raw security data into actionable outcomes — from reducing phishing susceptibility to enforcing zero-trust access policies across the organization.
