About Me!

Cybersecurity enthusiast by day, digital detective by night—because let’s be honest, the internet never sleeps. Armed with a Bachelor’s in Information & Technology, dual majors in Cybersecurity, and a stack of certifications (CompTIA Security+, (ISC)² Certified in Cybersecurity, and more), I live for securing networks, analyzing threats, and catching vulnerabilities before the bad guys do.

I speak fluent Python, Java, and C++. My toolkit includes everything from IDS/IPS to Security Onion, and I’m well-versed in industry frameworks like MITRE ATT&CK and NIST CSF. Whether it's incident response, forensics, or keeping digital assets in check, I thrive on solving complex security puzzles.

Collaboration and mentorship keep me motivated—because what's the fun in cybersecurity if you can’t share the paranoia? Always learning, always adapting, and always two steps ahead of a cyber threat (hopefully).
