What I'm looking for

I am looking for an internship that offers hands-on experience and opportunities for growth in cybersecurity.

I am an aspiring Cyber Analyst currently pursuing an Associate of Applied Science in Applied Computing with a focus on Cybersecurity at Glendale Community College. My education has provided me with a strong foundation in vulnerability analysis, threat intelligence, and secure computing, complemented by hands-on training through the Google Cybersecurity Certificate.

Throughout my studies, I have engaged in practical projects that have honed my analytical skills. For instance, during my capstone project, I filtered and analyzed login data using SQL to detect anomalies, and I conducted vulnerability assessments to propose effective remediation strategies. I am particularly passionate about applying my knowledge in real-world scenarios, which is why I am eager to secure a Summer 2025 Cyber Analytics & Assurance Internship at RTX.

In addition to my technical skills, I pride myself on my strong communication abilities, which enable me to write clear incident summaries and security reports. I am dedicated to continuous learning and am always exploring new tools and trends in cybersecurity to stay ahead in this dynamic field.
