What I'm looking for
I am an aspiring network and cybersecurity technician pursuing an A.S. in Computer Networking & Cybersecurity with hands-on training from Cisco Networking Academy.
I have practical experience deploying and configuring Ubuntu servers and Wazuh SIEM for log collection, intrusion detection, FIM, and automated responses, and I routinely use tools like Cisco Packet Tracer and Wireshark.
My networking projects include VLAN design, trunking, inter-VLAN routing, ACLs, DHCP, NAT/PAT, and troubleshooting with Cisco IOS CLI on both simulators and real hardware.
