From political intern to chief of staff to entrepreneur, Previn Jones made a conscious decision early in his career to be the architect of his own future. A proud graduate of Texas Southern University (TSU)—a distinguished HBCU— Previn had the privilege of studying under his mentor, the late Dr. Thomas F. Freeman (“Doc”), head coach of the legendary TSU Debate Team. Under Dr. Freeman’s guidance, Previn competed and won international speech and debate championships in London, England; Lisbon, Portugal; Rome, Italy; and Paris, France. Dr. Freeman’s teams earned such a reputation for excellence that actor Denzel Washington brought the entire cast of *The Great Debaters* to TSU for public speaking training. To honor his mentor’s legacy and share those invaluable lessons, Previn authored *Public Speaking the Freeman Way*—a practical guide that has helped professionals and students alike overcome their fear of public speaking. “As a first-place winner, I took what I learned on his debate team and gave it to the masses. It was such an honor to be under Dr. Freeman’s tutelage during the most formative years of my life.” — Previn Jones After graduating, Previn pursued a decade-long career in public service, holding influential staff positions in the Texas Senate, U.S. Congress, and City of Houston municipal government. Driven by an entrepreneurial spirit, he later founded CES Management Group—a full-service real estate investment management firm specializing in acquisitions, value-add renovations, build-to-rent development, and affordable housing management. What began with one rental property has grown into a portfolio exceeding $15 million in assets under management. A lifelong believer in education, Previn complemented his undergraduate and MBA degrees with a Professional Graduate Certificate in Real Estate Investment from Harvard University (HES). “This program allowed me to build relationships with people all over the world—from Southeast Asia to South Africa. I knew I had to up my game to be more competitive. At this point in my career, it’s either go big or go home!”

Hello reader, I am a Security Analyst specialized in Detection Engineering, with a strong focus on understanding threats end to end and how different security teams collaborate across the security lifecycle. I began my career at Deloitte as an intern, where I gained hands-on experience with social engineering techniques and learned how significantly these threats can impact a multinational organization. After completing my internship, I continued with Deloitte as a Security Analyst, working with the same client and deepening my technical and analytical skills. Later, at Getronics, I further developed my investigation capabilities and expanded my knowledge across multiple areas, including vulnerability scanning, ISO 27000 controls, basic cyber threat intelligence tasks, customer-facing activities, and the practical application of the MITRE ATT&CK framework. I also took on increasing levels of responsibility, which strengthened my overall security mindset. These experiences enabled me to move into a Detection Engineer role, where I broadened my scope within cybersecurity. In this position, I analyzed current threat behaviors and designed detection rules and alerts to identify potential exploitation attempts before they escalate. Currently, at isolutions, I am focused on building a Cloud Security Operations capability from the ground up. My work includes incident response, designing standards, defining ways of working and playbooks, and researching automation opportunities to improve security investigations and response. My main goal is to enhance SecOps efficiency without compromising investigation quality. I am fully aware that there is always room for improvement, and continuous learning is something I actively pursue. Outside of cybersecurity, I spend my free time coaching and playing basketball. This has reinforced my team-oriented mindset, whether I’m working within SecOps or on the court. Best regards, Cristian
