Who I am
I am a senior cloud investigations and security expert specializing in fraud, threat detection, and risk analytics. For over a decade, I’ve worked at the intersection of cloud security and supply chain protection—helping organizations uncover patterns, attribute bad actors, and disrupt malicious activity before it impacts the bottom line.
My expertise isn't just about catching threats; it's about making security data intelligible. I bridge the gap between technical forensics and executive decision-making.
When I’m not working cases or project you’ll find me with my family, reading, playing tabletop games, or—weather permitting—on the basketball court.
What I do
I help organizations understand and stop malicious activity across cloud environments. My work focuses on four key pillars:
Cloud Fraud & Abuse Investigations I conduct deep-dive investigations to identify threat actors and infrastructure. My goal is to support high-stakes, international disruption efforts by spotting behavioral patterns others miss.
Investigative Program Leadership I don't just run tickets; I build programs. I manage the full lifecycle of investigative projects, from multi-phase testing and QA oversight to deployment readiness and team leadership.
Visual Intelligence & Reporting Data is useless if you can't read it. I design custom dashboards and detection strategies that turn raw numbers into clear narratives—giving stakeholders a real-time view of fraud trends, attribution clusters, and operational metrics.
Supply Chain Integrity I apply advanced forensics to physical asset movements, identifying loss and converting security gaps into measurable cost savings.
Strategic Threat Intelligence I translate complex technical findings into decision-ready intelligence for business leaders. This includes proactive monitoring and strengthening defenses against evolving global threats.
Collaborate with me
Beyond my day job, I dedicate time to personal projects, exploring data and learning about investigative methods. Let’s talk.
