About

With extensive experience addressing complex security challenges, I focus on building robust system architectures, identifying attack surfaces, and predicting potential threats. At DugganUSA, I am currently designing a threat intelligence platform capable of processing over 1,000,000 IOCs, publishing TAXII, STIX 2.1 and OpnSense feeds for enterprise SOCs, and contributing research to CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog. I leverage AI as a force multiplier to enhance pattern recognition and process vast amounts of security data. My mission is to tackle modern security challenges by applying innovative solutions in cloud-native threat intelligence and multi-cloud ecosystems.

Agentic AI Full Stack Security Architect

Jul 2025 – Present · 10 mos · Minneapolis, Minnesota, United States · Remote

  • I build entire systems. Whole architectures. Document attack surfaces. Where the threats will come from before they arrive. I've spent 25 years following the hardest problems of each era—from post-9/11 financial infrastructure to cloud-native threat intelligence. Non-linear path. The work speaks for itself.
  • Currently building a threat intelligence platform that processes 400K+ IOCs, publishes STIX 2.1 feeds consumed by enterprise SOCs, and contributes original research to CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog. I use AI as a force multiplier—not a crutch—extending pattern recognition across more data than traditional teams can process.
