About Juan Davila
Mission-focused U.S. Air Force veteran driven by intellectual curiosity and a passion for technical mastery. With over 20 years of experience enhancing healthcare operations, optimizing IT systems, and leading compliance programs, I operate at the intersection of Healthcare Operations and Cybersecurity. I possess CompTIA Security+ certification and an active Secret/SCI Security Clearance.My career has been defined by high-stakes decision-making. As an EMT and Healthcare Ops Manager, I developed a \"triage mindset\"—the ability to rapidly assess critical threats, prioritize actions, and execute protocols under pressure. Today, I apply that same discipline to Incident Response, Risk Analysis, and Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC).I blend a Master’s in Cybersecurity with a commitment to continuous hands-on learning. I actively sharpen my skills through labs and challenges (TryHackMe & SANS lab), moving beyond theory to practical application in: Security Operations: Phishing Analysis, IOC Extraction, Endpoint Security, and SIEM. Technical Proficiency: Linux/Unix Administration, Bash/Shell Scripting, and Virtualization. GRC & Strategy: NIST CSF, HIPAA, Policy Development, and Identity & Access Management (IAM).I am transitioning from military service and seeking a role as a Cybersecurity Analyst, GRC Specialist, or Healthcare Systems Security Professional. I combine strong technical abilities with proven leadership to protect systems and support cross-functional teams.
