My technical acumen
SD-WAN: I was hired on to the SD-WAN team at Cisco to help drive adoption of our two routing portfolios. I am well versed in WAN transports (MPLS, 5G, Broadband, LEO Satellites), IP Security, QoS, application optimization, NGFWs, micro-segmentation, and VPNs.
SSE: With the growth of the Secure Access Service Edge, I have taken on an expanded role to cover the convergence of networking and security. In this role, I focus on cloud security technologies including remote browser isolation, secure web gateway, firewall-as-a-service, zero-trust network access, and encryption / decryption.
Infrastructure Automation: Aside from covering the SASE portfolio, I am also the lead PMM for Cisco Workflows, a network automation tool for managing complex, hybrid architectures. In this role, I have developed knowledge of API management, Infrastructure as Code, Role Based Access Control, and Software Development Kits.

Kamden is the only PMM who has proactively reached out to me so far about NPI comms ahead of time. He is also the only one who completed the comms and sent them to me ahead of time as well! I am really impressed by his diligence, professionalism, and communication with team members. Excited to continue working with Kamden on the launch of the Z4C.

"Kamden helped me start my business by creating me a branded website and portfolio to highlight my work. He included a payment processor and lead form to allow me to convert prospects into customers. I referred him to a family member and he was able to help her turn her side-hustle into a full-time job by not only helping her book more clients, but also manage them in a way that made it easier for her to grow."
