What I'm looking for

I seek hands-on networking, IT support, or cybersecurity roles in a growth-oriented team where I can apply Cisco-certified skills, hardware/network troubleshooting, and continue professional development.

I am a Computer Technology graduate from Maseno University with Cisco certifications in Network Security and Cybersecurity Essentials, combining strong theoretical grounding with practical, hands-on skills.

I have assembled and configured hardware, installed and maintained LAN/WAN infrastructure, supported clients on-site and remotely, and participated in CCTV and security system setups as an attaché and ICT technician. I also maintain freelance data-entry roles and developed profitable, disciplined forex trading approaches after being funded by The 5%ers proprietary trading firm.

I work well in diverse teams, prioritize attention to detail, time management, and safety compliance, and I seek opportunities where I can apply networking and cybersecurity expertise while contributing to reliable, secure systems and continued professional growth.
