What I'm looking for

I seek a Network Engineer role where I can apply and expand CCNP-related skills, work on secure infrastructure, collaborate with a supportive team, and advance in certifications and responsibilities.

I am a driven, detail-oriented Computer Networking graduate with hands-on experience in firewall configuration, VPN deployment, endpoint provisioning, Active Directory support, and helpdesk operations. I have supported both local and remote environments, coordinated cloud deployments, and maintained e-commerce and website providers while developing disciplined technical troubleshooting abilities.

Currently pursuing CCNP ENCOR while holding a CCNA, I bring practical experience configuring Sophos SSL VPNs, routing and switching fundamentals, network security tooling, and virtualization platforms such as Azure, AWS and VMware. I thrive in collaborative teams, balance multiple technical and entrepreneurial projects, and aim to grow into a Network Engineer role focused on secure, resilient infrastructure.
