Summary

I am an organized and committed individual who is not afraid to get my hands dirty, I can carry out any duties to requirements and perfection. I thrive in a team environment and can work with minimum supervision as I am a quick learner and can adapt to situations fast.

I actively participate as a member of a team to move the team toward the completion of set goals. I consistently maintain high levels of activity or productivity operating with drive, effectiveness, and determination over extended periods of time. I set high standards of performance for self and others; assuming responsibility and accountability for successfully completing assignments or tasks; self-imposing standards of excellence rather than having standards imposed. I thrive in meeting client needs, building productive client relationships, taking responsibility for client satisfaction and loyalty.

I am currently a Senior Security Architect at Melton City Council working in the Security architecture team. I deliver effective information security solutions to support the operational and strategic needs of the Melton City Council business. I act as a member of the technology enterprise architecture group in accordance with the EA Charter.
