Overview

About Me

I’m a seasoned IT professional with over a decade of experience in network security, systems administration, and infrastructure engineering—supporting enterprise environments across manufacturing facilities in the U.S. and Mexico.

Currently serving as a Network Security Engineer at Consolidated Precision Products, I design, manage, and lead network and systems infrastructure projects across 16+ sites, my accomplishments including:

🔹 Building and deploying ACLs, VLANs, 802.1X authentication, LACP, RSTP, & implementing AAA protocols to improve overall network performance and hardening of the edge network, resulting in establishment of corporate standards.
🔹 Automation of repetitive tasks to free up resources and reduce efforts by leveraging scripting language such as Powershell and automation tools like Ansible.
🔹 Planned, designed, and led infrastructure overhaul/refreshment projects in budget range of 500k+ to help refresh hardware, to accommodate growth, and new business needs/requirements.
🔹 Served in mentorship role to help train, provide guidance, career development, and team support for interns and new team members.

I also monitor and respond to cybersecurity threats using tools like Carbon Black, Rapid7, Nessus, and SIEMs, ensuring systems are secure, compliant, and stable.

I hold certifications including CCNA, Security+, Azure Fundamentals, SC-900, and Fortinet Associate (FCA). My approach combines deep technical skills with cross-functional collaboration, allowing me to bridge IT operations, cybersecurity, and business needs.

🔧 Core Competencies:
🔹 Network Infrastructure Design & Security (802.1X, AAA, VLANs, ACLs)
🔹 SCADA & IIoT Deployments
🔹 Virtualization (VMware & Proxmox), Cloud (Azure)
🔹 Cybersecurity Monitoring & Compliance (CTPAT, SIEM, Carbon Black, SentinelOne)
🔹 Backup & Disaster Recovery (Veeam & Acronis)
🔹 Scripting & Automation (PowerShell, Python)
🔹 Cross-functional Project Leadership & Documentation (Confluence, Smartsheet, Visio)

I’m passionate about improving systems, securing environments, and mentoring the next generation of IT professionals. I’m currently exploring advanced roles where I can apply my experience to help organizations scale securely and efficiently.

Outside of my professional life, I can be found in the outdoor settings rappelling down waterfalls with my teams, and scaling steep rocky desert mountains with my friends.
