About Me

My background sits at the intersection of IT support, compliance, and security operations. I’ve supported end users in fast-paced environments, handled identity and access validation work, contributed to FedRAMP and VA continuous monitoring efforts, and built portfolio projects to deepen my defensive security skill set.

Support That Actually Solves Problems

I work directly with users, troubleshoot endpoint and application issues, document clearly, and keep things moving without making the process harder than it needs to be.

Security and Compliance Exposure

I’ve worked with access reviews, Azure sign-in logs, AWS IAM validation, POA&M tracking, monthly and quarterly audit work, and FedRAMP-aligned security tasks.

Built for Growth

I’m actively building toward SOC and DFIR roles through hands-on labs, homelab projects, log analysis workflows, and portfolio work that proves what I can do.

Featured Projects

These are the projects that best show my technical range, practical security mindset, and ability to take something from idea to usable outcome.

Windows Log Monitoring and Detection Lab

SOC / DFIR

Detection lab built around Windows event logs, Sysmon telemetry, and SIEM visibility. Designed to simulate realistic attack activity and show how logs can be collected, analyzed, and turned into useful detections.
