Cloud security that is practical, automated, and built to scale.

Security Architect at Akamai. I like turning messy, high pressure problems into clean architectures and automations teams can trust. My lane is cloud security, identity, and building secure systems that stay fast and usable.

What I do

Cloud security, IAM, and automation work that moves the needle.

Cloud security architecture

Design secure reference architectures for AWS and hybrid environments with clear guardrails, observability, and least-privilege access.

  • Threat modeling and architecture reviews.
  • Network segmentation and secure connectivity patterns.
  • Security controls that are measurable and maintainable.

Identity and access management

Build identity-first access with Okta concepts and modern IAM patterns: strong authentication, policy structure, and clean lifecycle management.

  • Role and group design aligned to teams and apps.
  • Policy structure for MFA and contextual access.
  • Passwordless journeys that stay secure and usable.

Secure engineering and automation

Turn security into code. Automate checks, configuration, and repeatable workflows with APIs and infrastructure-as-code practices.

  • Automation using APIs and scripts for consistency.
  • Security validation patterns for CI and CD workflows.
  • Operational runbooks that reduce toil and risk.

Core expertise

Cloud security and secure engineering are where I deliver the most value, especially when architecture meets programming and automation.
