As a highly motivated and cybersecurity-focused recent Applied Computer Science graduate I am dedicated to building and maintaining secure, trustworthy digital environments. I thrive at the intersection of technology, security operations, and problem solving, with a strong commitment to protecting organizational assets and user data.
I genuinely enjoy the process of solving technical problems and am committed to helping build effective, secure and reliable digital environments for everyone who uses them. I just finished my degree in Applied Computer Science and am currently pursuing CompTIA Security+ and Google's IT Professional Certificate to further my knowledge of computers, cybersecurity, and networking.
My Focus & Interests:

Outside of my studies, I like to embrace physical and intellectual challenges--finding balance and focus through staying active and adventuring outdoors. I am actively seeking opportunities in IT, Cybersecurity, and Computer Science where I can bring my enthusiasm, technical skills, and collaborative spirit to a professional team.

My Philosophy

Be Authentic

Authenticity is essential in every aspect of cybersecurity and IT.

This principle drives clear, ethical decision-making and ensures that every recommendation, configuration, and safeguard reflects the integritty and real-world needs--not shortcuts or assumptions., ensuring that design choices align with values and vision.

Be Curious

Curiosity is a key asset in security and technology.

Threats evolve, systems change, and effective defense requires a mindset that constantly explores, questions, and learns.

Curiosity fuels deeper problem-solving, reveals hidden vulnerabilities, and opens the door to innovative solutions to protect systems and empower users.

Be Empathetic

Empathy is the foundation of meaninful cybersecurity.

True security begins with understanding people--their concerns, their habits, their challenges, and their goals. By listening carefully, we create an environemnt where collaboration thrives and security becomes accessible, not intimidating.

Without empathy, trust erodes, and even the strongest technical controls fall short. With t, we build safer, more human-centered systems that truly support the people who rely on them.
