About
Senior cybersecurity and intelligence professional specializing in Identity & Access Management (IAM), Identity Risk, Insider Threat, and Zero Trust architecture across federal and enterprise environments. I bring a unique combination of identity governance, behavioral analytics, and investigative expertise, enabling organizations to detect identity-based threats, enforce least privilege, and reduce enterprise risk. My experience spans building insider threat programs, aligning identity controls to NIST 800-53, and advising leadership on access risk, privilege misuse, and identity-driven vulnerabilities. I have led and supported initiatives involving: Identity Governance & Administration (IGA) Privileged Access Management (PAM) Identity Lifecycle Management (provisioning / deprovisioning) RBAC / ABAC access control models MFA, SSO, and identity federation (SAML / OIDC) Identity Threat Detection & Response (ITDR / UEBA) Zero Trust identity-centric security At GDIT and in consulting roles, I focused on correlating user behavior with access patterns, identifying anomalous activity, privilege escalation, and insider threats—bridging the gap between identity and threat detection. With a background in the FBI and enterprise cybersecurity, I am skilled in translating complex identity and access risks into clear, actionable insights for executives and technical teams. Currently focused on expanding hands-on expertise in: Okta (SSO, MFA, Federation) Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD) SailPoint Identity Governance CyberArk Privileged Access Management Open to opportunities in: IAM | Identity Risk | Zero Trust | Privileged Access Management | Federal & Cleared Roles
