About
As an Information Security Analyst at Blackpoint Cyber, I leverage my CSIS certification and over two years of experience in cybersecurity and network monitoring to protect the data and systems of various clients. I am proficient in using technologies such as Splunk, Azure Sentinel, Wireshark, and Nessus to detect, analyze, and respond to security incidents and threats.
I am passionate about information assurance and committed to enhancing my skills and knowledge in this field. I have successfully created and implemented a security training program for a previous employer, Binary Defense, where I also maintained records of security monitoring and incident response activities. I am a US Army veteran and a leader who values teamwork, integrity, and excellence.
