What I'm looking for

I'm seeking a dynamic, fast-paced technology environment where I can apply cybersecurity, networking, and IT support skills, contribute to innovative solutions, take on new challenges, and grow as a professional.

I've supported cybersecurity operations at Datacentrix by monitoring alerts, investigating threats, reviewing logs, assisting with vulnerability remediation, and documenting incidents.

At Eduvos, I resolve hardware, software, Windows, Microsoft 365, Wi-Fi, LAN, and account-related issues while maintaining support tickets and minimizing user downtime. I also tutor Higher Certificate in Cyber Security students, helping them simplify complex concepts, prepare for exams, and improve their results.

My Information Technology studies at Eduvos focus on Network and Security, including advanced networking, Python, penetration testing, cybersecurity analysis, database systems, and IT project management.

I'm looking to apply hands-on security, networking, and technical support experience in a dynamic environment where I can contribute to practical cybersecurity solutions and continue growing professionally.
