10+ years across SOC operations, threat intelligence, penetration testing, and incident response — at PwC, Cognizant, and beyond. I help students and career-switchers build the skills, strategy, and confidence to land real jobs in cybersecurity.
I started my career as a network security engineer in 2017 and have since worked across some of North America and India's most demanding security environments — from PwC and Cognizant to Greenway Health and my current role at Long View Systems in Edmonton.
I've been in the trenches of SOC operations, hunted real threats, written KQL queries for Microsoft Sentinel, led red team exercises, and built incident response playbooks from scratch. I know exactly what employers want — because I've been that employer's hire.
I'm active on HackTheBox, write on Medium about cybersecurity, and stay sharp so you learn from someone still in the field — not someone who left it.
Every session is built around your specific goals — no generic advice, no templates. Just honest, field-tested guidance from someone still doing this work every day.
A focused, personalized session to build your cybersecurity career plan — whether you're a student, a career-switcher, or just starting to explore the field.
Simulate a real SOC analyst interview with someone who has conducted and passed them. Get brutally honest feedback and know exactly what to fix before the real thing.
I've reviewed and written security CVs from both sides of the table. I'll tell you exactly what hiring managers skip past — and how to make them stop.
