About

Built on systems discipline

Two decades in enterprise IT — from RedHat and AIX administration through datacenter operations, technical leadership, and deep into identity & access management and security engineering.

At Netwrix, I'm the subject matter expert on our PAM product — a Senior Solutions Architect in Professional Services focused on identity and access management. I design and deploy enterprise PAM solutions, build automation frameworks, and translate complex security requirements into production-grade implementations. My current fascination is agentic engineering and prompt engineering — I build and operate production multi-agent AI systems with the same rigor I bring to privileged access: least privilege, human-in-the-loop oversight, complete audit trails, and fail-safe defaults.

Operating Principles

  • Build for production, not demos.
  • Security is architecture, not a feature.
  • Agents need guardrails.
  • Write it down.

Policy Lens

My Juris Doctor from LSU Law informs how I design policies, evaluate regulatory risk, and write statement-of-work scope with contract-level precision.
