Aspiring cybersecurity professional with a focus on network security.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated cybersecurity student at Marist College, pursuing a BS in Cybersecurity with a minor in Information Technology. My academic journey has been marked by a commitment to excellence, as evidenced by my placement on the Dean's List for three semesters and being a recipient of the Greystone Technology Scholarship. I am passionate about exploring the intricacies of network security and risk management, and I am eager to apply my knowledge in real-world scenarios.
Currently, I am working on a Linux KVM Security Capstone Project, where I have created a virtualized environment to test various known CVEs. This hands-on experience has allowed me to utilize AI for log analysis, enhancing my skills in system security. Additionally, I am designing a multi-site enterprise network as part of my Networking Sandbox Project, which includes implementing advanced security features to ensure robust communication between LAN and the Internet.
