I run enterprise security operations and work on the security architecture. I also build the models and the tooling myself, so the governance I write is grounded in how the systems actually work.
Security leader with 10+ years running enterprise security operations at Viatris, a global pharmaceutical company operating in 80+ countries. I've built and scaled 24/7 global security operations, led security through the Mylan-Viatris merger, and now develop security architecture. The data science and AI/ML background is what does the heavy lifting. I build the automation and threat-detection tooling most security leaders have to buy from a vendor.
Built and led 24/7 global security operations supporting 100K+ users across 80+ countries. Led security integration through the Mylan-Viatris merger, harmonizing practices across 2 organizations.
Develop security architecture review and anlytics initiatives across Viatris, translating fast-moving model deployments into enterprise-grade risk controls rather than after-the-fact patches.
Master's in Business Data Analytics from West Virginia University, built on a career that started doing statistical risk analysis and predictive modeling in R and Tableau, the analytical foundation the AI/ML work stands on today.
40+ fine-tuned models published on Hugging Face for security analysis, geopolitical risk, and travel risk assessment, plus applied research and writing on the practical trade-offs of using AI in security operations.
Before security, ran 24/7 emergency medical operations as a paramedic and shift supervisor, the same high-stakes, time-critical decision-making now running the security response function at enterprise scale.

I've spent my whole career in security operations, in one form or another. I started as a paramedic and EMS shift supervisor, running high-stakes, time-critical operations long before any of it was called incident response. From there I moved into OSINT and geopolitical risk analysis, then joined a global pharmaceutical manufacturer's Global Security Operations Center, where I've stayed and grown ever since: I helped carry that GSOC through a company merger, took over running global 24/7 security operations, and now I work on security architecture.
Here's the shape of it. For the full role-by-role history with dates, that's what LinkedIn is for.
Connect on LinkedInI am part of the security architecture team specializing in security analytics and AI/ML.
Directed 24/7 global security operations and built the threat intelligence program from nothing. Brought detection and automation tooling in-house rather than buying it, which is where the fine-tuning and agent work on this site started.
Coordinated security operations through the Mylan-to-Viatris merger and built out OSINT and threat intelligence collection. Two security organizations became one without a gap in coverage.
Geopolitical risk analysis and threat intelligence, with data visualization work in R and Tableau.
Ran emergency medical operations for a high-volume trauma center.
A geopolitical risk analyst you can talk to. Ask about any conflict and a fine-tuned Qwen model returns a structured risk read, with the output constrained so it shows its evidence instead of free-associating. Runs live in the browser.
Pick a country and a time window and it pulls conflict data, news, government travel advisories, and airspace status into one risk brief. Built as a multi-agent pipeline on smolagents, the same shape of problem a GSOC works every day.
Three sizes of Qwen2.5 (0.5B, 1.5B, 3B) supervised fine-tuned for security and geopolitical risk analysis, published openly on Hugging Face so the right size can be picked for the deployment. Every output is constrained JSON with a confidence score and the evidence behind it.

Interested in security leadership, security architecture, or how AI/ML fits into enterprise security operations? I'm always open to that conversation.
