A Cybersecurity Professional and U.S. Marine
My journey into cybersecurity began in the U.S. Marine Corps, where I built a foundation in discipline, leadership, and strategic thinking. Those experiences shaped my commitment to protecting critical systems and guiding organizations through the complexities of today’s digital landscape. With expertise in incident response and a focus on research-driven strategies, I aim to bridge innovation and resilience in cybersecurity. Here, I share insights, ongoing research, and reflections on the field—connecting with others who value security and integrity.
A CYBERSECURITY RESEARCHER WITH A MISSION TO IMPROVE INCIDENT RESPONSE
My journey in cybersecurity has been shaped by a unique blend of experiences across government, military, and critical infrastructure sectors. I contributed to national security efforts with Lockheed Martin, supported local government initiatives with the Osceola County Board of County Commissioners, and advanced transportation security with the Greater Orlando Aviation Authority. These roles have given me a multi-faceted perspective on protecting vital systems and building resilient frameworks.
Outside of cybersecurity, I’m a helicopter pilot, a lifelong New York Giants fan, and a proud father of two daughters. I was also a caregiver for my mother, Cladye Juanita Walker, during the last eight years of her life—a time that deepened my commitment to resilience and service. Her strength continues to inspire me.
On this website, I share insights, research, and reflections on cybersecurity, connecting with others who value integrity, collaboration, and continuous growth.
