Bonney Lake, Washington, United States
As a Senior Product Marketing Manager I help customers understand and implement robust cloud security solutions. At AWS, I translates complex security concepts into actionable guidance, helping organizations successfully implement AWS security services while providing clear paths for getting started with cloud security. My hands-on experience with AWS security services, including AWS Network Firewall, Route 53 DNS Resolver Firewall, and Verified Access, allows me to bridge complex technical concepts with practical implementation strategies. With a CCIE certification and extensive background in cloud infrastructure security, I architect and evangelize security solutions that span identity management, network security, and multi-vendor environments. My technical foundation in building secure, scalable infrastructures informs my current focus on developing AWS security product positioning and go-to-market strategies. As the author of "Securing the AWS Cloud: A Guide for Learning to Secure AWS Infrastructure" (Wiley, 2025) and previous publications with Cisco Press/Pearson Education, I've contributed significantly to the security community through technical documentation and architectural guidance. My engineering background has shaped my approach to product marketing, with notable achievements including: Previously, I've led technical initiatives in SD-WAN, Application Acceleration, and Network Performance Monitoring, applying my engineering expertise to drive product adoption and customer success. As CEO of Global Config Technology Solutions, I developed advanced technical training programs focused on practical implementation of security architectures.
