M.S. Information Technology from Arizona State University. GPA 3.93.
I build security systems and data tools from scratch using real data. Not tutorials, not sandboxes — actual threat feeds, actual transactions, actual security events.
CyberShield — A live SOC platform that ingests 150,000 plus real threat indicators from URLhaus, AlienVault OTX, and Feodo Tracker. Detects malicious IPs and domains in real time with automated incident creation and a Flask dashboard.
PhishGuard — ML phishing URL detector trained on 6,500 plus real URLs with 24 engineered features. Random Forest achieved 99.90% AUC-ROC.
Home Lab SIEM — Full ELK Stack deployment across two VMs. Processed 26,000 plus real security events. Configured Filebeat, Logstash pipelines, and Kibana SOC dashboards from scratch.
Phishing Email Analyzer — TF-IDF plus Logistic Regression classifier trained on 82,000 plus real emails. 98% accuracy with consistent precision and recall.
Credit Card Fraud Detection — Random Forest model on 284,807 real transactions. 97.66% AUC-ROC. Identified $60,127 in fraud losses in the test set.
Vulnerability Scanner — Automated CVE scanner using Nmap and the NVD API. Queries 347,000 plus CVEs and generates professional PDF reports.
