Hands-on support
I’m a security leader with experience across big tech, defense, and research environments, currently serving as Director of Security Response at Coupang in Seoul. Previously, I led large-scale incident response and security operations programs at Google, Juniper Networks, and NASA Ames Research Center, with earlier experience supporting national security missions at the U.S. Department of Defense.
Across my career, I’ve built and scaled incident response teams, led high-severity security investigations, and partnered closely with engineering, legal, and executive leadership during critical security events. I’m especially passionate about helping others break into cybersecurity, prepare for FAANG-level interviews, and build practical, high-impact skillsets that translate into real career growth.
As a mentor, I focus on realistic career roadmaps, interview strategy, and helping mentees understand how security actually operates inside top-tier tech companies, not just in theory, but in practice.
5 out of 5 stars
Curtis is one of the best mentors I’ve ever worked with. He motivates me but also truly inspires me to grow and believe in my potential. His guidance is clear, supportive, and very practical. I always leave our sessions feeling more confident and focused on my goals.
