After one call
You'll walk away knowing exactly what to do next
Most people don't need more content. They need a senior practitioner to look at their profile and say: “Do this, skip that, and here's why.”
- 01
A clear 90-day plan — what to learn, in what order, and what to ignore
- 02
Honest read on SOC vs GRC vs cloud vs IR for *your* background
- 03
Resume & LinkedIn angles that don't sound like every other “aspiring analyst”
- 04
Interview stories you can actually defend in a technical screen
- 05
Certification sanity check — what's worth it now vs later
How the 30 minutes run
Structured so you learn, not listen
We jump straight into your goals. I ask hard questions, share what hiring managers and team leads actually care about, and end with a short written follow-up you can keep.
- 0–5m
You set the scene
Where you are, target role, timeline, blockers.
- 5–22m
Deep dive
I map gaps, call out shortcuts, and share what works in real programs.
- 22–30m
Action plan
3–5 concrete next steps you can start this week.
“Felt like 6 months of random YouTube compressed into half an hour.”
“Finally someone who's actually hired and trained people — not selling a course.”
Built for you if…
Breaking in
Applying but not getting callbacks, or stuck between helpdesk and your first SOC seat.
1–2 years in
Ready for IR, cloud, or GRC — need a sharp plan for promotion or a role change.
