What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can perform hands-on pentesting/CTI, influence remediation prioritization, work with red teams, and grow in cloud and application security.

I am a cybersecurity professional with 3+ years of hands-on experience in penetration testing, vulnerability assessment, and cyber threat intelligence. I deliver end-to-end security testing across web applications, APIs, mobile platforms, and network infrastructure, mapping findings to MITRE ATT&CK and providing actionable remediation for technical and executive stakeholders.

I proactively monitor CTI feeds, prioritize remediation using CVSS-informed risk assessments, and simulate real-world adversaries through red team exercises. I continuously sharpen skills via CTF platforms and certifications (CEH, EJPT, AZ-900, SC-900), and I automate testing workflows to improve efficiency and detection capabilities.
