What I'm looking for

I’m looking to leverage my security assessment, SAST/DAST, and cloud hardening experience as a Security Analyst—protecting assets, improving defenses with DevSecOps, and communicating risk clearly to technical and non-technical teams.

I’m a cybersecurity soon-to-be graduate with hands-on experience across application and cloud security, DevSecOps, and incident response. I’ve designed and deployed security assessment tooling and mapped findings to frameworks like NIST CSF and MITREATT&CK to support clear, actionable risk decisions.

In my roles, I engineered an Automated Vulnerability Assessment & Management System concept and built security assessment workflows that embed SAST and secure coding practices into the development lifecycle. I also delivered vulnerability assessments using Nmap and OpenVAS, then provided structured remediation guidance for network and application-layer risks.

I’m especially drawn to protecting organizational assets by hardening cloud environments (IAM/MFA policies, least privilege, VPC segmentation) and translating technical findings into business-ready narratives. I also strengthen my craft by creating and collaborating on practical cybersecurity education for non-technical audiences.
