What I'm looking for

I seek a collaborative, growth-focused role where I can strengthen incident response, optimize infrastructure, deliver secure scalable systems, and mentor technical teams while advancing cybersecurity capabilities.

I am a versatile, detail-oriented IT professional with 3+ years' experience across software development, IT support, systems administration and cybersecurity. I design and implement robust solutions—led a data integration initiative that improved cross-departmental accuracy by 20%, automated vulnerability scans, optimized firewalls, built Power BI dashboards, and provided Tier-2 support with a 95% satisfaction rate.

I have delivered projects including a mobile-first LMS (Studyhub/Sechaba), a React/Node.js interactive exam builder, and a Python/AWS IoT livestock-tracking prototype; I pair technical skills (Python, Java, SQL, Docker, AWS, SIEM) with stakeholder collaboration to deliver secure, scalable systems. I hold multiple IBM cybersecurity certifications and seek roles where I can strengthen incident response, optimize infrastructure, and mentor teams.
