What I'm looking for

I am looking for a remote cybersecurity position where I can leverage my MEng in Electrical & Computer Engineering, Security+ and Network+ certifications, and diverse technical experience. I seek a role that offers continuous learning, challenges in identifying and mitigating security vulnerabilities, and the opportunity to collaborate with a dynamic team.

I am a highly motivated and skilled professional with a Master of Engineering in Electrical and Computer Engineering. My academic journey included a thesis focused on creating software to identify security vulnerabilities, laying a strong foundation for my career in cybersecurity. I hold Security+ and Network+ certifications, which validate my knowledge and skills in network and security domains.

My diverse background includes serving in the Greek Special Forces, where I developed strong discipline and strategic thinking skills. I also had the opportunity to live abroad in Krakow, Poland, for six months as an Erasmus exchange student, which broadened my cultural understanding and adaptability.

Professionally, I have experience as a Network Engineer intern, where I gained hands-on experience with network infrastructure and security. I also worked as a Mobile App Developer, honing my programming and development skills. In my free time, I enjoy building websites and apps, constantly expanding my technical expertise and staying updated with the latest trends in cybersecurity.

Additionally, I tutor university students in various subjects such as algorithms, programming languages, databases, and the theory of computation. This not only reinforces my knowledge but also allows me to help others achieve their academic goals.

I am passionate about cybersecurity and am actively seeking remote opportunities in this field. My combination of technical skills, practical experience, and a strong educational background makes me a valuable asset to any team.
