What I'm looking for

I’m seeking an entry-level Network Engineer or Network Security Engineer role to apply my Cisco and Palo Alto security skills in a production environment.

Through my CCNA, CCNP Enterprise, and CCNA-to-CCIE Security training, I built and secured simulated enterprise networks with Cisco and Palo Alto technologies.

In my Enterprise VPN Lab, I configured site-to-site IPsec, DMVPN, GETVPN, FlexVPN, and certificate-based authentication, then verified tunnel and routing states through CLI diagnostics.

I also built a segmented enterprise LAN across four or more VLANs and practiced Palo Alto firewall policies and GlobalProtect remote access VPN. I’m seeking an entry-level Network Engineer or Network Security Engineer role where I can apply these skills in a production environment.
