Professional Background

This experience reflects progressive work across data governance, infrastructure security, operational technology, and critical infrastructure systems. Each role contributed domain-specific insights that informed the development of the AUTHREX governance framework. Consulting engagements were conducted on a part-time, remote basis during academic breaks while maintaining full-time student and OPT status in the United States.
