What I'm looking for

I seek hands-on security roles focusing on network defense, pentesting, and incident response in collaborative teams that value continuous learning and automation.

I am a cybersecurity engineer focused on network security, vulnerability management, and penetration testing, with strong Linux administration skills.

I build tools and automation — including a Model Context Protocol server for automated reconnaissance and forensic collection systems that integrate VirusTotal and AbuseIPDB.

I hold certifications such as CompTIA Security+, CompTIA Network+, and QuickHeal Certified Digital Forensic Investigator, and I regularly compete in CTFs (Top 4% on TryHackMe).

I collaborate effectively across teams, lead meeting coordination in technical events, and seek roles where I can apply scripting (Python, Bash), threat detection, and secure network design to strengthen enterprise security.
