What I'm looking for

I seek hands-on roles in SOC/detection/DFIR where I can build detection logic, validate telemetry, automate response, and grow technical leadership in blue-team operations.

I am a cybersecurity analyst with practical SOC, detection engineering, and digital forensics experience, having built and deployed four production-grade blue-team tools and completed a six-lab Windows memory forensics series using Volatility. I validate telemetry end-to-end, engineer precision SIEM detection logic in Wazuh, and convert noisy logs into clear, defensible findings.

My hands-on work includes live alert triage during an Elevate Labs internship, multiple freelance security projects that replicate enterprise SOC conditions, and several open-source tools (SSH brute-force mitigation, DoS defense, file integrity monitoring, and Windows logon tracking) that improved detection accuracy and reduced manual review time.
