What I'm looking for

I seek hands-on cybersecurity roles focusing on penetration testing, threat detection and ML-driven security research within collaborative, growth-oriented teams.

I am a Bachelor of Computer Science candidate specializing in network technology and cybersecurity. I am committed to deepening interdisciplinary technical knowledge and contributing impactful research toward intelligent systems and secure infrastructure.

As a cybersecurity analyst and former information security intern, I led penetration tests, implemented endpoint monitoring strategies, and automated detection workflows with custom Python scripts. I produced threat intelligence reports, supported SOC operations, and helped remediate vulnerabilities across client environments.

I built a machine-learning-based NIDS dashboard using Streamlit, scikit-learn, Pandas and NumPy and deployed real-time anomaly visualization. I also organize local developer and cybersecurity events and hold CEH v12 and AWS Solutions Architect certifications to bridge practical skills with research-driven outcomes.
