About
I lead enterprise cybersecurity initiatives and act as a trusted advisor to global clients, translating technical complexity into governed, predictable delivery. Over 140 high-value projects — up to $700K each — closed with 100% SLA compliance.
My delivery experience spans the Palo Alto Networks security portfolio: Cortex XDR, XSIAM, Xpanse, XSOAR, Prisma Access, NGFW and Cloud Posture. Typical engagements involve multi-region rollouts, migration from legacy tooling, SOC enablement and hypercare — with security, network and cloud teams that all need a single, credible plan to work from.
I lean hard on AI-driven tooling (Google NotebookLM, Glean, Gemini, Claude) to cut manual project administration by 30%, and on proactive risk, issue and change control that reduced issue resolution time by 35%. The result is fewer surprises, cleaner forecasts and executives who always know exactly where a program stands.
Outside client delivery I mentor aspiring PMs on certification paths, agile adoption and the practical use of generative AI in project operations.
How I Deliver
Frame
Scope, success criteria and risk posture agreed with the client before a single resource is booked. Charter, RACI and governance cadence signed off in week one.
Govern
Weekly delivery rhythm, financial forecasting and a live risk/issue/change register. Escalations move on facts, not sentiment — 95%+ forecast accuracy sustained.
Deliver
Cross-functional squads run to milestone plans with hypercare and knowledge transfer built in. 100% SLA compliance across 140+ engagements.
Compound
Every closure feeds the playbook: reusable templates, AI-assisted reporting and lessons learned that cut resolution time 35% on the next program.
Security Stack
Endpoint detection & response rollouts, agent migration and tuning programs.
SOC modernisation — data onboarding, correlation and analyst enablement.
Attack surface discovery and remediation workflows for global estates.
Playbook automation and incident response orchestration delivery.
SASE / secure remote access deployments across distributed workforces.
Next-gen firewall migrations, policy rationalisation and cutover planning.
Cloud security posture management onboarding and compliance baselining.
NotebookLM, Glean, Gemini and Claude embedded into PM operating rhythm.
