Professional Summary
With 13 years of hands-on experience across IT and cybersecurity roles, I have evolved from Tier 1 support to senior positions in governance, leadership, and technical operations. My expertise spans:
● Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC)
● Penetration Testing
● Incident Response
● SOC Management
● Project Leadership
Throughout my career, I’ve worked closely with legal teams, gaining a deep understanding of law, regulations, data protection, and technical documentation. This has allowed me to rapidly advance my skills and make significant contributions to the organizations I've worked with.
I am currently seeking opportunities in roles related to penetration testing, SOC operations, GRC, project management, and leadership. My focus is on transitioning to a stable full-time, part-time, or contract role, though I remain open to consulting opportunities. I have scaled down my client base to prioritize one key client and defer others until next year. I am also in discussions with multiple companies for senior positions in SOC, GRC, investigations, and project-related roles.
My goal is to quickly secure a position where I can contribute meaningfully while maintaining confidentiality as per my professional obligations.
