In my role as a Project Delivery Specialist, I plan to use just over two decades of experience in cyber and cybersecurity, focusing on Risk Management Framework (RMF) and quality assurance. My proficiency as a cyber professional encompasses procuring, designing, building, administering, maintaining and managing local and enterprise level networks. I have summated these skills through hands-on experience in small and robust private and public sectors networks. These skills have lent to my success, in client systems and network management, security control assessments and policy development to ensure the highest level of compliance. In addition to the technical skills mentioned, I have honed my leadership and management skills to successfully manage complex network solutions and large teams of cyber professionals. My mission is to elevate organizational security postures, build strong partnerships and streamline compliance processes. In pursuit of that mission, I aim to drive strategic cybersecurity initiatives, facilitate comprehensive training programs, and mentor the next generation of security professionals. My dedication to excellence is reflected in our team's ability to deliver high-quality, sustainable systems and services that provide actionable insights.
