About

I’m a cybersecurity manager with hands-on experience leading both offensive and defensive security initiatives across enterprise environments. With a background in managing large SOC teams, building CTI functions, and overseeing complex security projects, I bring a 360° perspective to modern cyber defense. My strength lies in bridging the gap between deep technical teams and business objectives—aligning threat intelligence, incident response, and risk management strategies with organizational priorities. From Red Team simulations to SIEM optimization, I’ve led teams that proactively strengthen security posture while enabling scalability and resilience. With PMP certification and a strong focus on strategic communication, I’ve advised stakeholders at all levels—from operational teams to C-level—helping them understand and respond to the evolving threat landscape. 🌐 Areas of interest: SOC strategy, threat intelligence programs, offensive/defensive security architecture, DRP, cloud security, and AI-powered cybersecurity solutions.
