Jordan Proffitt
@jordanproffitt
I analyze network threats and vulnerabilities through hands-on labs, SIEM concepts, and security tooling.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I've built a home cybersecurity lab with Kali Linux and VirtualBox, using Wireshark and Nmap to scan networks, analyze traffic, identify open ports, and investigate anomalous activity.
Through ongoing TryHackMe training, I complete hands-on exercises in offensive security, defensive operations, and systems architecture, documenting tools, technical write-ups, and lessons learned in a public GitHub portfolio. I also hold the Google Cybersecurity Professional Certificate and am preparing for the CompTIA Security+ exam.
I bring more than a decade of experience managing high-volume, detail-critical hospitality operations, where I developed calm troubleshooting, precise inventory tracking, safety-focused decision-making, and dependable customer support under pressure.
