Work Experience

**/** – 01/19 Security Engineer, Bemis Company, Inc. (Teksystems Contractor) Colorado Springs, CO

Completed Bemis Manufacturing Isolation project which involved isolating all Manufacturing Devices at North American sites from the rest of the Bemis network, while preserving connectivity to Engineers, Monitoring equipment, outside vendors/support, etc.,
