SOC-focused cybersecurity professional skilled in incident response, monitoring, and system-level troubleshooting.
What I'm looking for
I am a Security+ and Network+ certified SOC-focused cybersecurity professional with hands-on experience in security monitoring, incident triage, and system-level troubleshooting across Windows and Linux environments.
My background includes practical work in SOC workflows, alert investigation, log analysis, and mapping activity to MITRE ATT&CK, supported by real-world labs such as Hack The Box, PortSwigger, and OverTheWire.
In technical support roles I improved uptime, reduced repeat incidents, and rebuilt client trust by owning issues end-to-end, performing root cause analysis, and applying system hardening and endpoint controls.
I hold multiple certifications (Security+, Network+, A+, RHCSA, RHCE, AWS Cloud Practitioner) and seek an entry- to mid-level SOC Analyst role in a 24×7 security operations environment where I can contribute to rapid incident response and continuous improvement.
