I am a CISA-certified, CompTIA Security+, and Microsoft SC-401 certified Cybersecurity and Information Security professional with hands-on expertise spanning cloud security, identity management, risk management, compliance governance, and IT service management. I hold a degree from New Jersey Institute of Technology and I am actively building a portfolio of real-world deployments that demonstrate the skills employers need on day one.
My work covers the full enterprise IT stack — from securing Microsoft Entra ID identities and deploying Windows endpoints at scale, to building SIEM detection logic in Splunk and managing ITSM workflows in ServiceNow. Every project in this portfolio includes a problem statement, step-by-step documentation, and screenshot evidence of completed work — not tutorials, not walkthroughs, but real implementations I built myself.

| Azure SOC Homelab — Splunk SIEM | Deployed Splunk Enterprise on Azure, ingested Active Directory event logs via Universal Forwarder, wrote SPL detection queries, built security dashboards, and automated brute-force alerting |
| Conditional Access & MFA Lab | Layered Conditional Access architecture in Microsoft Entra ID — enforcing MFA, blocking Tor-based sign-ins using real-time risk signals, and automating password resets when account risk is elevated to High |
| Privileged Identity Management (PIM) | Just-In-Time access control for Global Administrator — time-bound PIM eligibility, MFA on activation, multi-approver workflows, and full audit logging replacing permanent standing privilege |
| Wireshark Threat Detection Lab | Simulated SYN scan and SMB enumeration attacks in a segmented VMware lab, captured full attack traffic in Wireshark, and produced SOC-ready detection logic mapped to MITRE ATT&CK |
| Project | What I Built |
|---|---|
| Windows Autopilot & Intune | End-to-end zero-touch Windows deployment pipeline — hardware hash registration, Autopilot profile configuration, OOBE provisioning, MFA enforcement, Windows Hello for Business, and device compliance |
| Champulze M365 Tenant Deployment | Full Microsoft 365 tenant build for a smart manufacturing startup — domain integration, Teams Premium, Exchange Online, SharePoint, user provisioning, Copilot configuration, and UAT validation |
| Project | What I Built |
|---|---|
| ServiceNow ITSM Lab | End-to-end ITSM workflows — incident lifecycle, service catalog with custom request forms, change request through CAB approval process, and operational reporting dashboards |
| Soulinspire M365 Teams Rollout | Governed Microsoft Teams deployment for a non-profit — team provisioning, three-tier channel architecture, messaging and caller ID policies, and audio conferencing configuration |
