Who I Am

I am an Information Security Analyst with a background in IT support and a passion for technology that dates back to childhood — I’ve been taking apart hardware and exploring software since I got my first computer at age five.

My career has grown from hands-on help desk support to securing enterprise environments, where I now focus on security monitoring and incident response, vulnerability assessments, and managing SIEM tools to detect and respond to threats. I hold CompTIA’s Network+, Security+, and CySA+ certifications alongside an OffSec Threat Hunting Essentials certification, reflecting my commitment to staying sharp and continuously expanding my skill set in an ever-evolving field.

I am driven by a desire to continue growing within the cybersecurity space, taking on greater responsibility in protecting the systems and data that organizations depend on.
