About
📩 Preferred Contact: tcaldwel7@gmail.com (LinkedIn messages are not monitored regularly.) I’m a naturally curious network security engineer with a passion for understanding how things work — and how to make them work better. From an early age, I enjoyed taking things apart and putting them back together, and that curiosity evolved into a career solving complex networking and security challenges. Whether it’s sifting through logs, analyzing packet captures, or mapping traffic flows, I thrive on uncovering the root cause of problems and finding creative, efficient solutions. My experience spans troubleshooting unique network issues, optimizing performance, and improving security posture in high-stakes environments. I believe in resourcefulness — knowing when to apply deep technical expertise, and when to seek fresh perspectives from industry peers, technical documentation, or even unconventional sources like Google and Reddit. For me, every problem is an opportunity to learn and improve the network ecosystem.
