About Me

I'm a Cybersecurity professional specializing in CyberArk PAM, passionate about securing privileged access and optimizing enterprise security. My expertise lies in deploying and managing CyberArk PAS, automating onboarding workflows, and driving compliance improvements.

With proven expertise in implementing security controls throughout the CI/CD pipeline, I help organizations secure their most critical assets by automating credential management and implementing least privilege access controls.

My approach combines deep technical knowledge with strategic thinking to create solutions that are not only secure but also efficient and maintainable. I am skilled at integrating with HashiCorp Vault and enhancing PAM maturity to deliver measurable operational efficiencies.
