What I'm looking for

I'm seeking an opportunity to contribute as a Security Analyst or IT Support Specialist.

In my HomeCybersecurityLab, I configured a virtual lab with Windows and Kali Linux to practice penetration testing basics. I also captured and analyzed network traffic using Wireshark.

I implemented Docker containers with Grafana and Prometheus monitoring tools. In my IT troubleshooting projects, I built and maintained personal systems, applied patch management and endpoint security on Windows devices, and diagnosed hardware and software issues.

I also configured routers and switches for small office and home networks. I hold CompTIA A+, Network+, and Security+ certifications, and I'm continuing self-study in cybersecurity tools and digital forensics alongside ongoing CCNA study.
