What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that fosters innovation and offers opportunities for professional growth in cybersecurity.

I am a dedicated cybersecurity professional with over four years of IT support experience, specializing in network security, vulnerability assessments, and automation. My journey in cybersecurity has been marked by a commitment to excellence and continuous learning, as evidenced by my certifications in CompTIA Security+, IBM Cybersecurity Analyst, and Google Cybersecurity. I have a strong proficiency in Python, Wireshark, and SQL, which I have applied in various projects and roles to enhance security measures and streamline processes.

In my current role as a Cybersecurity Analyst at Union Systems, I have successfully analyzed network traffic to mitigate DDoS attacks and automated log analysis, significantly reducing incident detection time. My previous experience as a Junior Security Engineer at Telnokleen allowed me to conduct vulnerability scans and implement endpoint protection, resulting in a notable reduction in malware infections. I am passionate about developing innovative solutions, such as the Authorship Forensics Portal, which detects AI-generated text, showcasing my ability to blend technical skills with creative problem-solving.
