Experience
Sales Development Representative
Jun 2025 — Present
As part of Akamai’s API Security team, I help organizations safeguard the critical APIs that power their businesses. APIs are at the center of modern applications and are often the most targeted attack surface. My role is to connect security leaders with Akamai’s advanced solutions that deliver automated API discovery to eliminate blind spots, real-time threat detection and response to stop attacks before they impact operations, contextual risk analysis to prioritize vulnerabilities by business impact, and seamless deployment that scales without adding friction.Day to day, I collaborate with CISOs, security engineers, and IT leaders to understand their environments, uncover API security gaps, and align them with Akamai’s platform capabilities. My approach is rooted in building genuine relationships, creating value in every interaction, and positioning API Security as a key enabler of digital trust and innovation.
