Experience
Where I've worked
Cybersecurity Analyst
JPMorganChase • New York, NY

- Incident response on CrowdStrike, Cortex, Splunk, Exabeam, and ThreatConnect. If an alert is real, I work it.
- Built an AI detection triage tool so analysts can cut through the noise instead of clicking the queue by hand.
- Acquisitions cyber team: monitoring, incident response, and getting newly bought shops onto the bank's stack.
- Worked with engineers to get useful logs into CrowdStrike NG-SIEM.
