What I'm looking for

I seek a dynamic role in cybersecurity that fosters growth and innovation.

I am a dedicated cybersecurity professional with extensive experience in Security Operations Center (SOC) operations, cloud security, and automation. My journey in cybersecurity began with a strong educational foundation, earning a B.S. in Cybersecurity and Information Assurance from Western Governors University, where I focused on information security and risk management. I have honed my skills through intensive training and hands-on projects, including a Cybersecurity Program at Per Scholas, which equipped me with practical knowledge in SOC workflows and threat hunting.

In my recent role as a SOC Analyst at Wafer-wire Cloud Solutions, I monitored enterprise systems using Splunk SIEM, conducted log analysis, and integrated MITRE ATT&CK tactics into our threat detection playbooks. My ability to create automation scripts using Python and PowerShell has streamlined our incident response processes, enhancing our overall security posture. Additionally, my experience as a Desktop Support Technician has provided me with a solid understanding of hardware and software issues, further enriching my capabilities in cybersecurity.
