About

I'm an experienced security professional with over 15 years of combined expertise in network and cloud security. Before my 7-year tenure in cloud security at Amazon, I spent 8 years focused on network security at Cisco, implementing best practices and designing tailored solutions.

Currently, I develop, consult, or design security tools and mechanisms for Amazon's offerings spanning AI, governance, security, risk, and compliance (GSRC), and beyond. I've led consulting discussions with customers globally, sharing my insights, best practices, and more.

Few recent highlights include:

🟩 Contributed to the OWASP LLM Top 10 since v0.5
🟩 Open-sourced a sample GenAI app threat model
🟩 Developed security awareness resources and baseline controls for AI and GSRC

I'm driven by constant learning in the ever-evolving security landscape. My goal is to foster secure technology adoption and empower organizations to innovate with confidence.

Feel free to connect with me to discuss cloud security, network security, GSRC, AI security, or potential opportunities. I'm always excited to collaborate and share my expertise.
