What I'm looking for

I’m looking to start as a SOC Analyst L1 and grow in security monitoring, incident investigation and documentation, and threat detection.

Through hands-on cybersecurity labs, I’ve practiced network traffic analysis, vulnerability assessment, and threat detection. At SmartED Innovations, I completed a Cyber Security internship and training program with practical lab-based exposure.

I developed Linux and Windows security audit tools to identify configuration weaknesses and provide remediation recommendations. In my ongoing personal cybersecurity homelab, I test web application authentication and authorization with Burp Suite and practice Linux server hardening.
