What I'm looking for

I seek a hands-on cybersecurity role where I can apply risk analysis, incident response, and vulnerability management in a collaborative, security-focused team.

I am a dynamic and adaptable professional with over four years' experience in financial services and digital operations, specializing in client data verification, risk evaluation, and regulatory compliance. I manage sensitive information with precision and integrity to support secure, efficient business processes.

Currently transitioning into cybersecurity, I have hands-on experience with threat intelligence, vulnerability assessments, incident response, and security tooling including SIEM, IDS/IPS, Nessus/OpenVAS, and endpoint protection. I have completed practical projects—malware analysis using Nmap, Metasploit, Msfvenom and log analysis in Splunk—and attended a cybersecurity bootcamp.

I bring strong analytical thinking, attention to detail, and operational risk expertise to information security roles, and I am eager to apply these strengths to help organizations strengthen their security posture and protect critical data assets.
