What I'm looking for

I am looking for an entry-level role in cybersecurity that offers opportunities for growth and skill development.

I am an aspiring cybersecurity professional dedicated to developing my skills in network security, cyber threat intelligence, and digital forensics. With hands-on experience in conducting vulnerability assessments and penetration tests, I am eager to apply my knowledge in a practical setting. My commitment to safeguarding critical assets from cyber threats drives my passion for this field.

Currently, I serve as a Principal Identity Officer and Network Security Administrator at the National Identity Management Commission (NIMC), where I ensure the correct functioning of network security monitoring tools and develop security measures. My experience in IT operations and customer engagement has equipped me with the skills necessary to thrive in a dynamic cybersecurity environment.
