Over the past 15 years of my career I have grown through the ranks, from SOC Analyst to Security Engineer, Threat Intel & Hunting Manager, Architect, and VP of SecOps Engineering.
I’ve built security programs from scratch, led high-impact teams, and automated everything that could be automated. Now at Snyk, I’m back to my technical roots, leading Security Operations Engineering focused on secure-by-default systems, scaling security through automation, and advocating for the smart use of AI in SecOps where it truly makes sense.
I also run CyberSec-Automation.com, where I share hands-on frameworks like the LEAD Threat Intel Model and SADLC. SANS-certified (GSTRT, GCTI, GCFA), and once named “Threat Seeker of the Year,” by SC Magazine.
