What drew me I believe security professionals shouldn't be confined to a single discipline. Real security requires a holistic understanding of how systems interact — across networks, applications, users, and infrastructure. That’s why I make it a point to study as many areas as I can. ## 📖 Background -Serving aboard the USS Kitty Hawk, a steam-powered aircraft carrier, taught me discipline, structure, and how complex systems operate under pressure. After the Navy, I explored IT, sales, and eventually built and ran my own e-commerce businesses, incorporating two things I'm passionate about: fitness and tech. - -Those experiences shaped how I think about security: layered, resilient, and people-centered. I eventually shifted toward cybersecurity, with strong interests in network security and identity and access management. These days, I have developed an appreciation for all areas of cybersecurity, but I find the most enjoyment in building and configuring systems. +Serving aboard the USS Kitty Hawk, a steam-powered aircraft carrier, I learned to appreciate how systems work together. After the Navy, I took sales and management roles in the IT, automotive, and fitness industries, eventually launching and running e-commerce businesses that blended my interests in fitness and technology. +Around 2021, I shifted toward cybersecurity, with strong interests in network security and identity and access management. I have a large private cloud lab, so those areas came naturally to me. Today, I’ve developed an appreciation for all areas of cybersecurity, but I find the most enjoyment in building and configuring secure systems. ## 🧭 Why This Portfolio Exists -This portfolio is dual purposed—it's a space to document my progression, share labs and projects (some answering questions from Discord), and lay the groundwork for other projects. + This portfolio serves as both a personal documentation space and a platform for answering some community questions (discord/telegram). ## 🔒 Security Projects: - [AD Sync with Okta](https://naxslabs.com/how-to-sync-active-directory-with-okta/) - [Okta Policies & Conditional Access](https://naxslabs.com/okta-policies-enrollment-authentication-and-session-control/)
