What I'm looking for

I am seeking an entry-level technical role in cybersecurity or systems administration where I can apply hands-on forensic and network skills, grow through mentorship, and contribute to a collaborative, security-focused team.

I am a recent Bachelor of Information Technology graduate with hands-on experience in cybersecurity research, systems administration coursework, and practical retail roles that developed my communication and customer-service skills.

As capstone project manager, I led a team researching data breaches (2019–2024), built datasets, applied RStudio with linear regression and decision-tree methods to predict breaches, and delivered mitigation plans and user-facing cyber safety guidelines.

I am motivated to grow in technical roles, willing to relocate for the right opportunity, and bring a collaborative, problem-solving attitude backed by formal training in digital forensics, network and system administration, and applied IT support.
