About

I'm a Senior Cloud Security Architect and Consultant at Accenture with 6+ years of experience designing, securing, and defending enterprise cloud environments across AWS, with additional work on Salesforce and Azure.

Consulting means being effective fast: learning new environments, aligning with stakeholders across GRC, engineering, and executive leadership, and delivering work that teams can maintain long after the engagement ends.

What drives me is closing the gap between compliance on paper and security that actually works — real controls implemented in Terraform and CDK, architecture that holds up under scrutiny, and automation that turns one-time remediation into repeatable process.

What I bring

  • AWS depth: Security architecture, IAM, networking, EKS/EC2/RDS hardening, and native AWS security tooling across complex enterprise environments.
  • Compliance that ships: I translate NIST 800-53 and RMF into working controls and SSP artifacts — not just documentation, but implemented and auditable.
  • Automation-first: Terraform and CDK modules, Python scripting, and CI/CD pipeline security to turn manual tasks into repeatable, enforceable guardrails.

Skills

AWS Security

Core AWS security services, architecture, and compliance tooling.

  • Identity & access: IAM, roles, permission boundaries, least-privilege enforcement
  • Detection & response: GuardDuty, Security Hub, Inspector, CloudTrail
  • Networking: VPC design, PrivateLink, CloudWAN, NAT/Internet gateways, routing
  • Certificate management: ACM, ACM Private CA — TLS lifecycle for EKS and service-to-service
  • Automation: CDK, CloudFormation, Lambda, Config rules, Systems Manager
  • Compute & data: EKS, EC2, RDS, S3 security hardening and lifecycle policies
  • AI/ML: Bedrock agent security — OWASP LLM Top 10, prompt injection, access governance

Security Architecture

End-to-end security design, threat modeling, and architecture reviews.

  • Security requirements definition and control mapping to frameworks
  • Threat modeling and attack surface analysis
  • Secure SDLC / DevSecOps: security gates, SAST/DAST integration, pipeline design
  • Authentication architecture: Okta PKCE flows, API Gateway, OAuth 2.0 patterns
  • Architecture reviews: risk tradeoffs, recommendations, stakeholder sign-offs
  • Tooling integration: fitting security tools into existing delivery workflows

GRC

Compliance frameworks, audit readiness, and security governance.

  • Control framework implementation: NIST SP 800-53, NIST CSF
  • RMF execution: categorize, select, implement, assess, authorize
  • Security artifacts: SSP and Security Management Plan creation and maintenance
  • Audit readiness: evidence collection, gap analysis, executive reporting
  • Security governance: operating cadence, compliance tracking, KPI reporting

Infrastructure & IaC

Secure infrastructure automation and CI/CD pipeline design.

  • Terraform and AWS CDK: reusable modules, secure-by-default patterns
  • CI/CD pipeline design: Terraform Enterprise, Jenkins, AWS-native pipelines
  • Secure pipeline controls: least-privilege IAM, secrets handling, approval gates
  • Multi-environment provisioning: parameterization, environment separation
  • Automation scripting: Python and TypeScript for security tasks and reporting

Cloud Platforms

AWS as primary, with Azure and Salesforce experience.

  • AWS: primary platform — security architecture, engineering, and automation
  • Salesforce: AppOmni, EzProtect, DigitSec for SSPM, scanning, and misconfiguration detection
  • Azure: landing zones, VNet design, identity federation, compliance alignment
  • Multi-cloud: cross-platform network deployment, consistent security policy enforcement
  • Workday, MuleSoft: security integration patterns for enterprise SaaS

Security Operations & Tooling

Vulnerability management, detection, and security operations.

  • CNAPP / CSPM: Wiz — cloud posture and workload protection
  • Vulnerability management: Qualys, AWS Inspector — prioritization and remediation tracking
  • SAST remediation: code review and closure of high/medium findings pre-production
  • Threat detection: GuardDuty, Security Hub — alert triage and response
  • Incident response support: triage, evidence collection, forensic data gathering

Projects

What I'm building on the side — security tooling, compliance automation, and open-source work.

AI Agent — AWS Strands + OWASP LLM Top 10

Design phase

Building an AI Agent on AWS using AWS Strands with safe deployment guidance: least-privilege tool access, prompt-injection resistance, sensitive-data redaction, and audit logging. Evaluating against the OWASP Top 10 for LLM Applications.

AWS StrandsAI SecurityOWASP LLM Top 10

Progress so far:

  • Scoping agent security controls and threat model coverage
  • Defining least-privilege tool access and audit logging requirements

AI Security Triage Agent

Done

An AI-powered AWS security operations agent that helps analysts investigate and remediate Security Hub findings through conversational interaction. Addresses alert fatigue in multi-account environments — enrich findings from Security Hub, GuardDuty, Config, and CloudTrail, then execute remediation only after explicit human approval.

AWS BedrockSecurity HubCDKReactDynamoDB

What was built:

  • Conversational security analysis via chat UI with natural language queries
  • Multi-source enrichment from Security Hub, GuardDuty, Config, and CloudTrail
  • Approval-based remediation — agent proposes fixes, analyst approves before execution
  • Full audit trail with CloudWatch logging and compliance reporting

Security Control Coverage Analyzer

Done

A visibility tool that analyzes an AWS account and produces a Control Coverage Report showing what security capabilities exist, what is missing, and what to prioritize next — without duplicating Security Hub or AWS Config.

AWSPythonSecurity Assessment

What was built:

  • Implemented account analysis and coverage scoring logic
  • Generated Control Coverage Report with gaps and priorities
  • Documented setup and usage in the repository
