What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that allows me to apply my cybersecurity skills in a collaborative environment, focusing on vulnerability assessments and penetration testing, while also providing opportunities for professional growth and development.

I am a dedicated cybersecurity researcher with a solid foundation in cybersecurity principles and hands-on experience in vulnerability assessments and penetration testing. My journey began with a National Senior Certificate from Are-Fadimeheng High School, and I have since pursued advanced training through the Cybersafe Foundation and Udacity, focusing on ethical hacking and security testing methodologies.

Throughout my career, I have developed a robust skill set in programming languages such as Python and Bash scripting, and I am proficient in a variety of security tools including Wireshark, Burp Suite, and Metasploit Framework. My freelance role as an AI Training & Quality Assurance Specialist has further honed my analytical skills, allowing me to optimize AI performance and ensure the accuracy of AI-generated responses. I am passionate about leveraging my knowledge to enhance web application security and contribute to the cybersecurity field.
