Network Engineer & Security Practitioner

Thirty years building, running, and defending networks for Cisco, Microsoft, Apple, and Linux environments alike. I'm currently expanding that foundation into cybersecurity, with a certification track that's active and moving, not static.

I work across the full stack of enterprise infrastructure: routing and switching, Windows Server administration, Linux systems, and increasingly, the security posture that ties all three together. Three decades of hands-on network engineering means I don't just secure systems in the abstract I understand exactly how they actually break.
