Entry-level cybersecurity professional skilled in ethical hacking and threat analysis.
What I'm looking for
I am an undergraduate cybersecurity professional with hands-on experience in ethical hacking, threat analysis, and security tooling, seeking entry-level roles such as Junior Security Analyst or SOC Analyst.
During a Cyber Security internship at ITX360, I gained cross-department exposure to engineering, managed services, infrastructure, and solutions, participated in project site visits, and contributed to application development using Python and Oracle technologies.
I founded and led a creative agency, Editory, delivering tailored design solutions to over a dozen clients, which strengthened my client collaboration, project leadership, and creative problem-solving skills alongside technical work.
I have built projects including a responsive Turtle Hatchery web app and Hellsing.py, a Python3 CLI penetration-testing automation tool integrating 40+ open-source scripts, and I hold multiple cybersecurity certifications such as Fortinet, AttackIQ, and threat-hunting and forensics foundations.
