What I'm looking for

I'm seeking an entry-level Security Operations Center or cybersecurity analyst position where I can apply my cybersecurity training and hands-on home lab experience.

At the United States Air Force, I supported B-52H strategic bomber operations in aircraft maintenance, production, logistics, and deployment readiness. In my most recent role as Production Superintendent, I supported a Total Force Integration organization responsible for maintenance production for 20 B-52H aircraft.

As Flightline Expediter, I directed flightline maintenance operations for 14 B-52H aircraft and coordinated work involving approximately 300 Airmen across nine specialties. I supported more than 790 sorties and 5,400 flying hours, and our team achieved a Zero Deficiency rating during a Nuclear Surety Inspection.

While performing Aircraft Support Flight Chief and Equipment Custodian roles, I managed equipment accountability, deployment readiness, and support programs. I also modernized tool accountability processes and managed automated reporting systems.

Through RapidAscent cybersecurity training, I developed hands-on experience in security operations, vulnerability assessment, network analysis, and Windows and Linux administration. I also built and maintained a personal cybersecurity home lab using tools including Wireshark, Nmap, Nessus Essentials, and Splunk, and earned my CompTIA Security+ certification.
