      One of my most significant achievements has been the deployment of a secure IaaS environment in the Microsoft Azure cloud. This modernization initiative was launched in response to a critical need to prevent data loss prevention in the face of ongoing technological developments. I also collaborated on a long-term strategy to deploy Software Defined Networking and WAN and was the primary contributor on a Firewall Access Request modernization initiative. I’ve laid the groundwork for this departments continued success by fostering a culture of efficiency and transparent communication, re-architecting toward DevSecOps and automation, and by steering projects according to Agile methodologies.
