Hi there, I'm Brandon (Phin3has) 👋

I’m a seasoned Security Engineering Manager specializing in Cloud (AWS) and Container (Kubernetes) Security. With a background in DevOps and platform security, I focus on building scalable, secure infrastructure while leading teams to drive innovation. Passionate about automation, threat modeling, and securing distributed systems, I enjoy tackling complex security challenges and sharing insights through coding, research, and collaboration.

🌱 Currently Learning

I'm always expanding my knowledge in cloud security, automation, and distributed systems. Lately, I've been focusing on refining my home lab setup to experiment with Kubernetes, infrastructure-as-code, and security automation. My homelab serves as a testing ground for new technologies, allowing me to tinker with self-hosted services, monitoring, and container orchestration.
