Cybersecurity Training & Mentoring

Clear, practical instruction grounded in real-world experience.

Many professionals need targeted support β€” whether preparing for certification, strengthening weak areas, or building a clearer understanding of core concepts. I have 45 years experience in IT Security, including 10 years as an Internal Auditor. I have the CISSP and CISA certificates, and a wealth of real-world experience.

Experience

At Algonquin College I developed and led five courses, including SQL and Programming.
