What I'm looking for

I’m looking for an entry-level SOC or GRC Analyst role where I can strengthen log analysis, threat detection, alert triage, and incident investigation. I want a team that values hands-on learning, measurable detections, and real SOC impact.

Cybersecurity Analyst and IT Support Specialist currently completing a six-month Defensive Security internship at HiiT PLC while finishing a B.Sc. in Cybersecurity at Lead City University.

I build real-world security labs — not just to learn, but to demonstrate what I can actually do. My portfolio includes 21+ documented projects covering enterprise Cisco networking (VLANs, ACLs, NAT, OSPF), Splunk SIEM detection, CVE validation, Active Directory deployment, GRC audits mapped to NIST and ISO 27001, Python security automation tools, and SSH brute-force detection and defense.

Google and IBM Cybersecurity certified. Working toward CompTIA Security+ and CEH.

Open to remote entry-level roles in SOC Analysis, IT Support, Blue Team Security, or GRC.
